A liberal squirt of WD40 and some time to let it soak in. Depends on the current fasterners you have but make sure you use a good allen key socket or properly sized socket firmly positioned. If it deosnt move you may benefit from an impact driver.
The fasterners for the rear cylinder exhaust brakcet can be pretty tricky to get to, but that can also mean that the previous fitter may not have done them up too tight....if you're lucky.
Above all be patient and dont be tempted to get the hacksaw out
....not yet at least.
