If he does go for it, the amount of rocking back and forth isn't going to do it. Putting a big wrench on it will more then likely just tear the threads right out. A low impact wrench may loosen it up.
The real problem will be what would happen to spark plugs in an aluminum head in the old days. The spark plug would extend past the aluminum and rust would form. As the plug was coming out it's rusted part would destroy what was in it's path. That's where helicoils come in. Who knows maybe that is an option here to repair the damage that may occur if it all goes wrong.
