Yep, exactly right. I have a set of core pins I use for breaking them out (punch press pins). They do make diamond bits you can use in a die grinder that will work. The biggest issue there is not messing up the threads that are in there already too badly. I would try breaking it out first. Big whacks since the tap is strong but brittle.

Depending on how much more money in have to spend getting the car running again.

Might send you my old housing to fix / finish. So hopefully I can sell it and get some money back.
