Problem solved.
Thanks to everyone who provided advice.
It was only the the tip or the very initial entrance to the cap socket bolt that was rounded. So, I was finally able to break it loose with a fresh sharp Allen wrench after tapping it in with a small hammer.
Ill be using 12 pt bolts in the future.
Thanks again.

Why use 12 point bolts? You can't slip an open wrench on them from the side. I use ARP flanged hex bolts (same as the 12 but only 6 sided). Head is 3/8" not 7/16 like std 1/4 inch bolts.
