While your're waiting for the replacement parts, you could try unscrewing the long bolt (it has hexagonal flats, I think) with a Crescent wrench. It would be easier to do if you removed the bolt from the hinge assembly (you'd have to drill out the pin and replace it with a new one or a similarly sized threaded bolt and nut). The bolt is made of soft steel and even if slightly bent should back out .
