Pulling!
I used a gear puller set I bought at Harbor Freight to Remove the harmonic balancer. The impact wrench I bought with the hope it might shake the crank loose had no effect, but it did a great job taking off the bolt that secures the pulley. Then It was pretty simple to attach the gear puller behind the harmonic balancer and pull it off the shaft. Reinstalling the bolt gave me a nice spot for the tool to push against.
Getting the water pump loose
I also worked the water pump housing free. It was stiff and held on by mostly paint and goo.
The high pressure fuel pump was also removed. There is a low pressure one, too.
The allen key here was used to remove the bolt. I don’t know if it secures the pin or the shaft itself!
I removed the screw that holds allen screw on the end of the crank start but could not get the pin out. It didn’t seem to want to drift loose or unscrew. The only reference photo I have is the black and white shop manual photo but that is from a slightly different engine.

- The bolt head has a nice divot to use as a puller, but the washer underneath has to come off first.
