    Put the large screw out of your mind, that has nothing to do with it. There are two things that come to mind concerning the plate being stuck. First is it may simply be the water tube sticking in the rubber grommet. Twist & pull a bit harder. I’ll even forgive you if you get a screwdriver in there for a gently pry. Second is the drive shaft splines may be rusted into the crankshaft splines. Not a good situation. Can you move the drive shaft up and down at all?
