Removing my O2 Sensors, snapped a stud!...

And I wasn't even using a 14lb lump hammer this time!... (Unlike my spark plugs/warped throttle body incident...)...

 

Anyhow, I've mailed Jody to warn him my car might be into him on Monday (I'm off to Alton Towers on Thursday with a chick with big boobs :)), but I was wondering how hard it is to remove the stud, and what kit's needed?... Obviously I'll have to replace the broken stud too, is this just (If I'm lucky) a Halfords job??... I've got a Tap & Die kit, so I'm guessing that and plenty of WD40, a good drill bit to get the stud out, then a replacement stud?...

 

Or should I just spend my Sunday being Hungover, and get it to Jody on Monday?... Will it be OK with 1 O2 sensor being held in with 1 stud for 40 miles on the motorway?...
