Default 1969 Kiekhaefer Mercury 7.5 hp question

I'm really sorry for the REALLY stupid question but we're at our wits end. How the heck does the engine cover come off? I know, I know, but we just can't figure this one out. We see no levers, I've pried up the frontpiece with the logo on it but that didn't help. Please help!
