Thanks for the info. I've ordered a can of Kroil.

get it up a couple of threads and tried to get some Liquid Wrench to

suggestions for getting it out intact?

Kroil and PB Blaster are both better penetrating oils than Liquid
Wrench. Apply liberally, tap lightly with a hammer, turn back and
forth, repeat...
