That's what happens when you don't use the proper tools for the job in the first place. There are proper bleeder wrenches that prevent bleeder mangling. Also note, make sure the tiny rubber caps stay on the bleeder screws to prevent rust and dirt from entering the inside of the bleeder, making this job ten times worse. Then you need to use heat. Lots of it!!😅
Take a propane torch heat the caliper for a minute and the bleeder comes loose very easily. Used this trick just recently on my calipers. Replaced the bleeder with a SPEED BLEEDER so I can bleed the brakes myself.

Had no idea was a wrench just for these. I didnt round them btw they came that way on my truck.
