I broke a cop bolt (pic) 97 5.4

I broke the 1st driver side cop bolt trying to tighten it after changing the plug. I finger threaded it as far as I could and I diddnt think it was cross threaded but apparently it was and snap it went. I have read a similar post from someone who got alot of advice but I am still not sure what I'm going to do, the truck runs fine without the bolt but I would like to fix it. There is a little bit of the bolt sticking up still, I called my dad and he suggested trying vice grips but I thought I would look for advice here too. I am lucky it was the closest cop making this as easy as possible. All suggestions are appreciated.
