John's right.
I had a Yamaha 460YZ chain broke and knocked a hole in the transmission case
I coated the broken piece with JB Weld and stuck it back in there.It never leaked one drop of oil. I've been a believer ever since.
If you've got a screw that's fairly loose even with a broken head try sliding a thin piece of brass under it and use a small drill bit on a cordless drill set in reverse to back it out.
little screw extractors break to easily unless you have hands as steady as a brain surgeon (yea I'm not in that group either)
Oops didn't read all of your post LOL
Just take all the other screws loose then gently apply pressure to try and separate the shell and at the same time unscrew that stripped screw it'll come right outta there
