Seldom have truer words been typed on a help site.Removing broken bolts is a learned SKILL. It's your motor and you can do as you please, but it is likely you will fail and more than likely you will mess up something $$$$ expensive. You will save money and maybe a motor by getting experienced help. Your choice.
BTW, there is no such thing as an Easy-Out. It ain't easy, and they won't get it out. If the bolt itself wasn't strong enough to come out without breaking, how can you expect a skinny, brittle easy out to do it?
I have removed many thousands of broken bolts over my career and every one was is a challenge. Bring me one with a broken easy out or thread tap, and I'll probably tell you something you don't want to hear.
You need to read this post again. Stop, think, then read it again. I learned this lesson as a kid, with my Can Am dirt bike, & an easy looking Allen head bolt. I had the benefit of my best friends Dad was mechanic in the War, was very patient with us kids, & had a full shop on their ranch, including valve grinding machines.
When you break off that Easy-Out, ( I deliberately said when, not if), flush with the hole,you are really screwed. There is no easy way to drill that hardened steel bit. Even drilling your initial hole without a drill press is a crap shoot for an inexperienced shade tree mechanic.
Spend the money NOW, & bring it to a competent machine shop.
