Had the same problem myself.
Ended up hacksawing it off.
I cut down to the square taper on each side, filed a bit, banged it with a cold chisel and 3lb hammer.
Kicked it a few times, called it names.
It finally came off.
And it taught me a lesson: you cant be too carefull when threading into aluminum.
