Try the easy out, but replacing the support arm shouldn't too difficult. Jack up the engine a few inches and take off the four nuts and pull off the arm and put the new one on. Probably find one at a junkyard. Never tighten with a breaker bar. It's in the name. If a bolt needs to be that tight, you should be using a torque wrench.
