Mine did not split that easily, the bolts were corroded in and the Allen heads were soon mullered. I solved it by welding an old Allen key in and trying to get it out that way. It was still a struggle as the Allen key changed from being hard tough steel to flexible twistable steel during the welding process.
If I were to encounter the same again I would weld a nut to the rim of the bolt, effectively filling the head of the Allen bolt and the nut with weld.
This would concentrate the heat down the shaft of the Allen bolt and hopefully make it easier to get out
Agree re the seals - Ducati will not sell replacement seals so you have to find a KTM with the same calipers and buy some from a KTM dealer, although I think Powerhouse do them for Brembos
