Question Broken Muffler Hanger Bracket

So, I installed my new Stillen Exhaust today on my Infiniti G37x (2012). Btw... for those considering it sounds fantastic. However, when removing my stock exhaust I snapped a bolt on my rear muffler hanger bracket. Any idea on a fix for this? If I drill it out, I would have to rethread the hole, anyone know of any good adhesives or other methods? Really don't wanna take it to a shop for this.

I snapped that same bolt last year, trying to adjust the fitment of a muffler that was out of alignment. I can't recall the itemization exactly, but brackets and labor and I spent almost $300. I mean, they totally fixed the problem, but damn... that was expensive for what it was. G'luck.
