Any info on what you're trying to take the bolt out of?
Did you try whacking it with a hammer directly on the head?
Did you try penetrating lube?
Did you try heating it a bit?

3 other bolts are missing from the seal plate on my pump, my motor stopped working last night and I have a replacement sitting here ready to go but cant get the seal plate off
1 bolt is all holding it on

its not coming out tried, so I purchased from HD supply to get a new seal plate
and seal 75.00 total didn't think was too bad, just hope now it was the motor not the pump that has quit working

All that has been taken care of, another question that I now have and it might be a no brainer but I have no brain. So when I am full skimmer, which is how I think I will need to run my pool vac the pump doesn't stay primed as if it were on skimmer and bottom drain mode, is this normal, or something amiss???
Most of the time it is right at the pump lid or the plumbing conections just before the pump
