Thanks for the help
I want to thank everyone for the help. I ended up drilling the head bolt out with a 3/8" heavy duty drill bit.
I made a pin puller from a 3 1/2 inch long 3/4 inch pipe nipple with ends and a 5 pound weight from a barbell set. I drilled a hole in one of the ends for the 6 mm bolt, hooked it up and after heating the area got it out with a few wham bams.
