Default Help - How to replace shredded cat bolt

I was working on another car and when I removed the cat, the bolt got shredded. No idea how but seems to be poor material.



Would anyone know how I could remove this bolt? Usually they have holes at the ends of the bolt so it can be removed with a hex or something. But I'm not seeing that in this case. And pliers are not an option as its in there tight!

THanks.

- also, anyone know what this type of bolt is called? So I could shop for a replacement.

It is a stud, just unscrew it and replace it. I use vise grip to remove them, but there are special stud removal tools.
