I was putting an E-series fan belt protector thingy on my car and Ive broken the bolt on the waterpump (I think). Anyone got any ideas?

You will have to get a mobile mechanic out (or get yourself to a mechanic) and they should be able to extract the remaining bolt bit and put a new (whole) bolt in.

All fixed. $80 for removal of snapped bolt, and $2 for 2 new set screws.
