Removing Raw water pump - help

[Kummer]

Can someone help me in removing the raw water pump on my o3 x2 MCX ? I have removed the bolts and the mounting arm but still can not get the pump to break loose. I sprayed it with "PB Blaster" to possibly break it loose so I plan on checking this tonight.. There are only three bolts right? Any suggestions? I am only replacing the seal and don't want to damage the pump in the process.

not that i'm any help but the same thing happen to me. because the silencer is right up against the pump cover i decided to just remove the pump to change the impeller...yeah right...i beat the hell out of that thing and pry'd with what little room is in there and it wouldn't come off. i ended up just changing the impeller with the pump in place
good luck and post if you find a solution.
should only be 3 bolts btw
