I was replacing the cap and rotor, and the front bolt just snapped right off when i went to take it out. There's like one thread sticking out of the back of the housing, and its broken off flush on the other side. Should i just drill it out? Or could i possibly smack it out with a hammer+punch? I dont want to break the housing really, but not having that bolt in kinda bothers me.

Yep drill it out and retap it, or get a small punch and lightly tap it round in a circle to try and unwind it.

If at first you don't succeed, Try again. Don't give up too easily, persistance pays off in the end.
