Quite straightforward - a decent bike mechanic would do it, drilling a pilot and easy out.

I wouldn't do the drill and easy out on an exhaust stud. Have had bad experiences.

Agreed, the reason the tig-welded nut thing is the goto option is because it applies a significantly high amount of directed heat into the area you want to break any bond from corrosion.

Welding the nut gives a big surface area for a breaker bar, on a freshly hot/cold cycled thread.
