    Get an old 1/2 inch drive socket and cut a slot in it. Then weld something into the slot that fits neatly into the slot on the screw. Using an impact driver with this tool will make the job simple without buggering the slot in the screw.

    Listen to the man
    I have used a large flat blade screwdriver in the past and tapped it around to loosen it first, then undo it as normal.

    Dont try and turn the screw, place a punch at one edge and drive the slot in the lefty loosey direction... effectively punching the screw in a circular direction.

    Yes they can be BFT

    I think I ground something to neatly fit the slot and used an 18" shifter (yes, us bodgie tradies use monstrous things like shifters occasionally! )
    Been a while since I've replaced one.

    its a 2 person job...

    make a special blade to fit the screw slot perfectly and sized large enogh to get a shfter onto it. weld it to a socket that fits an impact driver.

    have someone hold the impact driver and turn it in the direction of undo while they also use a shifter to turn in the direction of undo.

    smack it with the FBH repeatedly and agressively...

    if that doesnt work heat up the area with a hot air gun.

    if that doesnt work get better swear words and try pin punching it around

    if that doesnt work get out the drilll , center punch it perfectly then drill it out in th center and the go back to the pin punching but change the angle of drive slightly so that your working the metal towards the center...

    if that doesnt work..
    make the hole bigger..

    if that doesnt work, have at it with a die grinder...

    if that doesnt work... buy a new block and fit the other parts to it.
