THANK YOU GUYS!
Had to leave it a while to get on with other things but it finally came off yesterday (Much celebration here) likely through a combination of penetrating liquids of all types, heat from soldering iron (thanks guys) and the time it took to get back to it.
The bolt did get a little wacky to where I thought it might be a goner but it worked out OK. It was smothered in Loctite. Likely original @ 65,000 miles the first time changed out of factory.
Now I have the new Ate rotors and the Akebono pads and many miles of happy stopping ahead.
Lesson: Expect the unexpected in all jobs and use this board. Thanks to all contributors - AGAIN!
