Default OH god major help plz

Well my impatient led me to decide to change the exhaust gasket and manifold to turbo gasket. Well all is well while taking it off, had to use some elbow grease just to get it all off. Putting it back on i decided to put the manifold to the block first and bolt it all up. Next decided to bolt the 4 10 mm bolts for the manifold to the turbo. Gasket in place bolts going in and when i got to the top 2 they seem to not want to go in all the way so i took them out and decided to loosen up the 2 back bolts. Well this is where my problem begins they have seem to seize stuck and if i put any more force tryin to take it out they would probably snap. PLZzzz n e help or suggestion on getting them out.. My noobyness led to this..

LOL... well i bought some rust penetration siezing removing stuf. that thing didn't even work. so i just got a really long socket wrench and force those bolts out. those bolts are tuff and didn't snap, so that a good thing. the bad part was the bottom of the bolt the thread broke. so i was like no problem retap the turbo housing holes and clean it up. well more bad luck the tap broke, but manage to get it out and i was juts like forget it. i just rebolt it all back and only 3 of the bolts went back okay. the lesson learnt here is to use antiseize always.
