This is my go to final option (the last resort) the thing I would do in your situation, if I really wanted that bolt out.

A impact socket (1/2" drive, or larger) 2 to 3 ft breaker bar, large hammer and a friend. Tell the friend something might break. Apply a loosening torque (heave on the bar) when applying your favoured max torque have your friend pound through the head of the bar and socket. Continue until the corrosion gives way or the bolt shears........... I did say last resort

I've painted an engine in the frame because of a situation like yours, and was never happy with the result, if I've taught you to suck eggs I apologise.
