I used a 2X4 as a hammer and freed it up. I hope that is all I needed to do...

Be sure that when you re-assemble things , you grease the drive shaft splines (splines only-not the top of the drive shaft) , this can ease dis-assembly the next time. Put a small amount of grease on the end of the copper water tube too.
