Vikki, you were absolutely right. I put a couple blocks between the pulley and the engine block, two light taps with the hammer on the snout, and it practically fell off! You have no idea what a relief that was!!! Then the balancer slid off, and again, YES, the slot and key did line up, looking at it while it's off (smacking myself in the forehead) I do remember that from the one other time I did this about fifteen years ago.
Now I just need to wait for parts and I can begin reassembly. Knowing how it comes apart, at least that part should be (SHOULD BE!) much easier.
As long as it's apart, anything else I should be looking at? Sure don't want to do this again anytime soon!
