Broken screw is stuck like cast

I'm afraid the threads will unfortunately stop

Press the torx bit into the hole you have drilled using a locking plier/clamp, that is.

My standard tip: ATF oil and patience.
Heat with a hot air gun, if it doesn’t risk setting anything on fire. Apply a few drops of ATF on the part sticking out on the back, it creeps in more easily that way.
Wait.
Repeat 1-2 times a day for a week or two, and it should be loose by then.

The problem is solved .. or at least gone. I tried to drill a groove and then used a bit of chisel with light pressure. I guess 50+ years in place might have contributed. Attaching images

Thanks for the great and incredibly quick responses!!

PS, the autopsy showed that I probably didn't stand a chance. The material seems completely oxidized and shows traces of paint in the tracks
