Dear Hellfish;
This is not good. What you have then is an "aftermarket" crank gear that was not drilled/taped.
What you will have to do is:
1. Rotate the crank till the holes in the cam gear line up with the screws that attatch the retainer to the front plate. Remove those 2 screws & then the cam. Be carefull not to damage the cam bearings.
2. You can now see what holds the plate on the block and can remove it too.
3. If your puller will fit then okay. If not you will have to pull the crank out. The gear is already junk so be carefull not to hurt anything else. (Do not use hammer to beat it off)
4. A little heat on the gear will help as 'Gearhead' stated. A small propane torch will do that trick.
It's just bad luck. I have never seen a crank gear w/o holes.
Good luck, John M., #3370.
