Angry Cracked Bolt Hole In Block---Advice Needed

Ok, here is the story, my friend and I were bolting a power steering unit onto a 350 motor in a 72 pickup I am working on. When we were bolting on the power steering brackets, we used a bolt that was too long and an impact wrench that was too powerful! Bolt went throught the back of the hole and antifreeze started leaking out. Any advice?? Will RTV seal up the the threads and keep it from leaking? What about that chunk of metal, is is going to eat waterpumps now? Any advice would be greatly appreciated. Thanks
JOHN
