Changed Spark Plugs, Snapped Ignition Coil Bolt

The Coil on the passenger side on the very back, I accidentally used the longer gold bolt to torque it down, and it snapped in half.

Can anyone help me remove the rest of that bolt thats stuck in there?

also if its my last resort, can I drive it to the dealer with the coil not securely fastened to the valve cover?
