I had this happen on a not-Volvo and decided I had to get it out for worry that it would come out on it's own, probably miles from home.

It was hard steel but not as bad as you describe. I drilled, drained, heated, removed the shell. Did a little damage but it resealed OK.

But: Mine was just frozen and stripped, not broken off flush.
