    The thrust bearing has to come out before the pinion gear will.  It’s that flat thing in there with the circle on it. Like FR says, give the gearcase a sharp rap to try and jar it loose. I have used long needle nose pliers to remove it but it’s made of breaklite or something and is rather fragile.
