'94 alternator mounting bolts

Ok, so I have determined that I need to replace the alternator. Today had some time off finally and got to removing it. Top mounting bolt comes out fine, but when I put it back in, and try to remove the bottom one, it required so much torque that the head is now rounded, using a close-ended wrench or socket. So... now I remove the top bolt to see if I could get on the bottom one at a different angle and the alternator will pivot on the bottom bolt. Is this a situation that an 'easy-out' will solve or do I have bigger problems?
