If you're prepared to buy new fittings then use a dremel tool with a cutting wheel and slice down one side.

Just don't let any electric drilling tool get away from you or you may have a bigger problem on your hand. You could always glue a piece into the existing bulkhead from below to get something more to hold onto while the other person is twisting from above if you were just going to discard the bulkhead afterwards anyways.

So i purchased one of these

If that doesnt work I think the wife will do this to me! and if that doesnt finish me off. I will cut the top off (the part under the tank) and just pull it up and install new ones which I'm gonna put new ones in anyway.

right and since its backwards im going to cut off the top which is actually on the bottom. And hopefully that will allow me just to lift the rest out of the overflow.
