There shouldn’t be any tension on the bolt since the head is gone, so it should turn pretty easily, unless the threads are corroded. Might as well PB Blaster it. Let me know if you need a small arm to reach in there! ---

IT IS OUT AND THE ALTINATOR IS BACK ON… thanks to mikes idea of cutting a line into the bolt with an angle grinder. a guy at my work lent me his and i had it out within 20 minutes (including dragging the compressor from the shed in the back yard) and went and got some new bolts… figured out why it broke also. seems like the person that installed it last only put 2 of the 3 bolts into the head for the bracket. and one sheared off a while ago (rusted) and was only held on by the one bolt until last week i guess. i got them in and tight and fired it up and no more squeeking belt and i am good to go. i appriciate all the help from everyone and finally had a REAL use for the website. thanks guys MAC ---
