that's normal something they do come off with the studs , no big deal.
Or if you really want to remove the stud from the nut , you have to use either a 7/8mm 6 point socket it fits right on the stud and break the nut loose.

+1 ^^, I've totally just threaded a stud or two back in after I finished if the nut was stuck on it....or put a bolt in there
My biggest annoyance was always catalytic converter studs on nissans...

yeah sometimes it works sometimes it doesn't, a bolt can be a quick fix but make sure to get the right length ones you don't want it going in to deep and when it bottoms out it will strip out the threads on the head (aluminum) before anything happens to the bolt since the head is pretty soft metal.
so a short bolt can be a temp fix but ideally get a new stud or stud kit and replace them all.
They are probably like a M8x1.25 or something close to that maybe M10 if you can find it locally.

FYI for future references:
"1JZ/2JZ Exhaust Stud, 10mmx1.25. These are factory Toyota exhaust studs, they go in the cylinder head to attach the exhaust manifold/s. They have a torx head to aid in installation and removal."
Found them on DM site for $2.30 each!
