Is it possible to get a 6-point closed end wrench on it? 6-point all the way around is less prone to rounding than open end or 12-point. If so, then slide it into a longish piece of metal pipe for additional leverage. Pre-soaking with Kroil if possible.

So does this mean you were able to get the bolts loose?
