Wow, I'm at a loss at the moment. Good luck with that. I can say I'm interested in the resolution.

That looks like there is a bunch of greasy dirt packed down in the bottom.
May be keeping the socket from getting around the hex.
Take a pick or skinny screw driver and see if you can clean it up.
Mat also spray some solvent down there to loosen it up.
Blow it out with compressed air.
