Success, I pulled the brass bushing. Drilled and tapped (4-40) two holes in the bushing- insert a couple of screws for grip, and pulled it out. Reason for the bad leak at the shift rod, previous guy had the wrong O ring installed. All back together now and pressure tests good. Oh, a little heat on the surrounding aluminum housing, likely eased the pull.
