Possibly Pre-Stripped Seatpost Bolt - Options?

Hey y'all.

Maybe I'm worrying too much, but when I insert an allen socket into my recessed seat post binder bolt (lugged) it seems there's a bit more play than I'm comfortable with. Looking into the bolt it seems like the edges may have started to strip a bit. What do you suggest I do? Is there any way to get my allen socket to fit tighter in the bolt? Would LBS have better tools/know how for this? What if I strip the bolt (it's tight in the back -- no gap to saw through.) BTW, I don't have much in the way of tools, so if I can't get it with an allen wrench I probably need to get some help.

First do no harm, right? Thanks.

PS: "Itegral" seatpost bolt -- screws right into the lug?
