Fazer 1999 spark plug seized

Fazer 1999 spark plug seized

Got the fazer back from a bike shop.
I had to get plugs changed and carbs sorted as water got into it.
Anyway, 2nd plusg is seized. They tried special spray that goes minus 40 and everything to get it out but it won’t budge.
They said you will need to drill and tap it and this will cost at least 300.
He said it’s not worth fixing though as bike has 87 thou on it. The final bill for repair could go higher.
Can this be done cheaper? Has anyone done it before? Anywhere else that anybody could recommend in Dublin.
Mechanic said it’s a pig of a job.
Any help is greatly appreciated.
