Determine which studs are frozen, the penetrating oil won't wick down, it will puddle up on top.
You can heat the stud cherry red and let it cool, but that won't work if the corrosion is deep down.
I would first try a blaster soak for a day or two, with double nuts and repeated whacks with a decent sized hammer on top of the studs.
