Back to the Jesus bolt. It's right ha s thread and the motor turns as to remove, I've seen videos where you just set up the breaker bar to hit into something solid like the garage floor and crank the starter (start disabled with no fuel: I would starve the engine of gas before doing such a job if it was still operable: very nice to have a depressurized fuel system).

I made my own crank holder from angle iron. It took about 700 ft·lb to remove the crank bolt on the M62s I worked on.
