I need to order all new brake bleeders

Easy outs are only any use on things that have been over tightened and broken (not seized in) if you go a couple of mm smaller than the thread you should be able to collapse the remains inwards with a pin punch - don't drill too deep as the bleed nipple has a "seat" in the calliper that you don't want to damage
