Well, I bought an extractor bit. Managed to drill through the bottom of the brake bleeder screw though. So now I definitely can't ride until I fix it.

Also FINALLY found the last source of my oil leak. A gasket in the oil pump. Having a helluva time getting the pump off though. The screws are on there GOOD. Will probably replace with hex or allen head bolts. I'll eventually replace them all, but for now it's just as I go along. Phillips/flathead screws on an engine are the WORST.
