broke motor mount bolt

Actually its not the motor mount bolt its the nut on the back side of the subframe that the motor mount on the drivers side is bolted to. It cam out very hard when I took it apart. When I was putting it back together the nut broke off. The bolt is over half way in. I cant get it to back out since the nut just spins now. Im not sure what to do now. The engine is in the car so I have no room to tap the hole if I just cut the bolt off. It has two other bolts that hold it in would that be good enough. I was going to drive the car to see if it moves the mount any.

I was thinking about welding the mount to the frame but I thought maybe it was a bad idea. If I did the next time i had the motor out i could fix it right. all i would have to do is just grind the weld off.
