Looking at the parts list-
there are 11 M10 NUTS under the casting, including directly behind the expansion chamber.

Suggestion-
Re-install 4 of the nuts loosely. If you lift the engine and it springs up, it can come down uncontrolled. With the nuts loose, it can only rise enough to break the gasket seal.

Did you ever get it free? I myself am having this same issue. If so how did you pull it off?

Pulling it straight up is the way
And i hammerd chisels betweet de gap en cut the gasket between with a knife
Hope you get it out
