Snapped bolt in alternator. A truly sumbich moment.

ARGH. Snapped the upper bolt off in the alternator bracket of a 2006 Scion XB.  Not a lot of room to work with.....Any ideas on how to get this  old bolt out.    Asking  for help on a Saturday night will surely prove to be genius .......??    Surely there is some mechanic out there that has some advice. 

I would love to figure out a way to get that bolt out of the alternator without taking the alternator off. 

I am now afraid the lower bolt may do the same thing, and that would be a worse problem . 

SUMBICH !  ( Note...drilled out the snapped bolt)
