I use the same method as Ruairidh and it's worked well for the last 40 years. Use the stud holes with good threads to fix the head down firmly.
Generally for removal, I heat the stud and then work it clockwise and anti-clockwise with vise-grips until it starts to move, then increase the amount of turn until you can get 1 full turn anti-clock. The stud then usually gives up and unscrews. I can usually get 12 or 13 out without breakage that way, sometimes a full set.
