Well, I can't get this timing cover off. Any hints?

Hi all.

Finally found and removed all the bolts (apparently), but the bottom of the cover doesn't want to come loose. And yes, I removed the four oil-pan bolts.

Is it just the gasket at the bottom? Not sure what to pry this with so I don't mar the mating surface.

Also, do I have to remove the water pump to get this thing out? The SAI plumbing is quite rigid and in the way; I don't see how this thing is going to come out.

Also, what is the electrical connector at the bottom passenger-side corner of the timing cover? Crankshaft position sensor?

Thanks for any insight!

Thanks. Clearly I forgot to mention it's a '96, so the bolts don't go through the timing cover. I finally did get it off by whacking it with a regular hammer on the pulley.

Now my biggest problem is the pile of grime and coolant that fell right into the oil pan. WTF do people do about that?
