Help, broken bolt siezed in aluminum

Went to change the thermostat in my wifes car and broke the head off one of the two bolts that hold the cover on. There's enough left to grab with vise grips and I've been soaking it with liquid wrench and banging on it but it won't turn. Is there anything else I can do besides keep at it and pray?

BTW the liquid wrench is 20 years old, does that matter?

TIA
