Camshaft pulley broken!!!

2000 Vauxhall Frontera 2.1
Car: Vauxhall Frontera
Year: 2000
Variant: 2.1
Categories: Engine & Drivetrain
Here we go! I changed the tensioner a while back and now the camshaft pulley ( the wheel with the rubber in it) has disintegrated itself regrettably. It's currently in pieces after removing the radiator and I can't seem to shift the bolt( 1 socket already snapped)

My question is - is there a secret to removing this bolt so I can replace it or not!!!

Please help- got no transport now!
