Cormanus,
Since you don't care if it gets messed up, as it already is, just plug the holes around it so as to not get anything into the engine and spin it out using some vice grips, or channel locks or maybe even a small size pipe wrench. Medium strength locker should give up the ghost pretty easily.
13 ft lbs isn't much and on mine I might would just spin it in with a strap wrench till snug. Or MAYBE wrap something around the new one and use the small pipe wrench again. Unless I could get 2 nuts that would fit. Without doing the 2 nut thing I don't see how you would put a torque wrench on it.
Really though, it is not a big job. Or a hard or that critical one.
