Yes I agree about the hex head bolts - they pick up a lot of crud down there and corrode. Good idea when new but when rusty the hole gets all rounded off. Count yourself lucky, in my case the top bolt was stuck - I ended up drilling a hole through it and using an old socket with a slot cut in, and a small rod.
