To all that answered with excellent advice and other listers,
  Alas no joy today. For information and future reference the pipe nipple 
extractors sold in plumbing departments are a marvel for bits of pipe left 
in a fitting. I bought an assortment for less than 9 dollars and the 1/4" 
fit and backed itself into the pipe just as designed. After I get through 
with the chiropractor tomorrow I am going to Sears to get the proper size 
breaker bar, short extension and a 50 foot piece of pipe (just kidding). As 
Dick Taylor pointed out I am sorry to say the intake will be coming off. If 
all else fails I am going to thread the left over pipe and put a bolt in, 
there certainly is no chance of coolant leaking by the pipe in the hole 
now.Thanks to all that answered and please send a donation to keep this 
list going. I know I did and may do it again. I will update as work continues.
