Try heating the bolt a bit with a torch. Vice grips should work, or drill it and use an easy out.

ive heard about weldin a nut on it and takin it off like that but im only 14 and dont have a welder or torch

i just need to change the oil, couldnt i just take the oil filter cover off and tip it over?

 

[roadkill]

what i did one time my bolt was stripped and i needed to get the oil out was take off the clutch cover enough to let all the oil pour out. i was lucky and it didnt hurt my gasket so i just loosened the bolts then when it was done i tightened them and its fine

If you can get a good grip with visegrips, tap on the head of the bolt at the same time your trying to loosen it. Don't baby the hits but don't go all Gorilla on it ether.

You could also try hammering on a socket that's one size smaller then what it would normally take. Can can try the same as above but use a breaker bar and hit the bar at the joint above where it go's in the socket.
