Replacing broken DPF studs

I need to pull my DPF and as expected, the nuts are not coming off easy. I've been nailing them with liquid wrench and some local heat but they're really stuck. I got one moving with a breaker bar but the stud snapped a half a turn later.

Does anyone know if the studs are available and if so what the part number is??

Thanks!

I live in Texas and the underside of my truck looks new. I've had my DPF out and I don't recall studs but then I didn't look close because it just kinda came right out but I pulled up microfiche and it shows studs but no part number. Dunno ... maybe walk up to the parts counter and ask for help because it doesn't look like you can order a DPF stud online.

I would think you should be able to hammer or drill the old bolt out and just put in a standard bolt and nut.
