Hot nut removal-turbo

[Myke456@aol.com]

While attempting to replace upper oil line (87 5kscTQ) ran into following
problem:

The line is held onto the turbo by 2 small nuts on studs. The "hex edges" of
the nuts have disintegrated while applying the slightest amt. of torque.
Eleven years of heat on these, never removed nuts, have taken there toll. What
is left is a smooth sleeve around the threaded studs, in a very tight area.

Just checking for ideas before I call "the mechanic".
