Default 400ex Oil filter bolt. HELP

Ok heres the story i need some advice. I was changing my oil and i switched the oil filters and when i wus puttin the cover back on for the oil filter i broke the Long bolt on the Case to hold the oil filter cover on. It broke pretty deep in the case, about there the threads end. I need some advice.. will the dealer be able to remove this bolt or am i going to need a whole new case? If so how much do u think both my options will cost... im candian eh lol

My buddys did that to his 400ex, and we bought an easy-out kit at murrays and drilled it out. Wasn't hard, but we removed the case to acess it. You don't need to over-tighten those little 8mm bolts!

I think its something with the heat. I've had the same problem only my bolt didnt break. Instead the socket did.
