Need Help, Intake Cam Gear Bolt Broke

[88aeFC3S]

okay, long story short. i'm replacing my timing belt and accidentally over-torqued the intake cam gear bolt and the bolt broke off. now half of the bolt is inside the cam shaft.

- what do i need to do to be able to take out the bolt inside the cam shaft?
- how much does a replacement bolt usually cost?

i've already gotten suggestion to buy a bolt extractor, find a used cam shaft, or take it to a machine shop. just wondering there's anymore suggestion out there. thanks

bolt extractor is the best thing i can think of

the bolt will be pretty pricey if you get it from as honda dealership

i would check a local junkyard to see if you can find one or just order one from the dealership, shouldnt be more than 10 bucks

Bolt is 3 bucks at the dealer.

the last bolt i got at the dealership was like 10 bucks :x

Says here it lists at 3 bucks. Can get it through this dealer for 2 bucks, but then you pay 10 in shipping.
