Crankshaft timing gear

The Previous owner tightened the pully nut on the crack shaft extremely tight. I was able to get the nut off, but the timing gear that attaches to the crankshaft will not come off. I believe I have the duplex set up because there is two chains and no tensioner. (1275) Does some other bolt keep the crankshaft timing gear one? i've tried screw drivers behind the thing, but it won't budge. I think the moonkey may be in the way, but I can't get that thing to slide either. I have an En16T crank if that helps.

Yes that worked, but it order to use the gear puller I had to cut off the chain to make enough clearance and wrap the chain around the second set of teeth. Gear puller then pulled on chain which pulled the gear off. Thanks
