Ti is junk for screws. They are acutally weaker than steel black oxide screws and Ti is brittle under load. They snap and shear like nothing too.
You can slot the top of the screw and use a very small screw driver to get it out. even if you go into the block a little to slot it won't hurt anyhitng because the engine seal is on the top of the sleve to the head button. If ts way below the top of he block there is nothing you can do but buy a new block. I had to do this to an old engine of mine and it was fine. Ti is very hard and tough to machine so drilling it out won't be an option without a drill press and a nice made jig to hold everyhitng perfect with a serious bit.
