Use a left handed cobalt drill. If it's corroded in, it will be very difficult to undo.
Go in increasing sizes, but find a way to make sure you start in the centre. A pillar drill is best for these, but a bolt with a hole in it works well if you have any threads spare (I'm thinking at the other end).
Factor in your time and experience, and consider taking it to a workshop (vehicle restorers are good) where the WILL extract it WITHOUT damaging it.
