[DML] Broken Head Bolt advice

[Jeff Phillips <rvparty@xxxxxxxxx>]

A involved job of replacing a worn cam has gotten more involved now
that a hea bolt has snapped.  Luckily it broke just below the bolt's
head so there is about 6 inches of bolt to work with when I remove it.
 I'm looking for suggestions on or offline on how to remove this.  Its
one of the end bolts farthest towards the rear of the car.

What I also don't understand is why this bolt broke rather than come
out.  Its a new bolt from the last time I had the head off.  Hadnt
driven the car enough at that point to be aware of the cam wear.  When
I install the new head bolts what can I do to ensure they come out
properly for the next guy?
