Depends how tight or seized it is in there, not an easy one to remove. An easy out drill bit is one possible way though.

Notch the bolt with a hacksaw and heavily lube it with Ed 40 then use a flat head screwdriver

So basically turn it into a flat head screw?

Looks like a decent amount sticking put spray it with pb blaster or a similar penetrating oil even wd40 and let it soak in. If you have locking needle nose pliers they could get in there or a dremel/hacksaw can put a slice in the end making it a flathead. If you can remove the wheel it will help, but if the tensioners won’t allow removal I would at least remove the axle nuts. If the other tensioner is good remove that one.
