Broken Bleeder Screw

I have a broken bleeder screw on my e99 F350 rear. I was going to try to drill out half way down to thin up the side and try to easy out. But as lond as I don't go though the bottom (Will I??) get metal in the caliper or should I just get a caliper? Does anyone know about rear caliber differents in e99 amd late 99 rear? SRW/ DRW same caliper???

You should be ok drilling it out with some care I would think. You can force anything right back out hydraulically.

Thanks That is what I am hoping for. The garage is FINALLY at least 40 degrees now. I am going to have at it. I once worked for this old guy who would say " If it wasn't that it would be something else" That statment is only so true.
