Tow rope around impeller shaft

[CLSeadoo]

Sea doo challenger 180 has a tow rope wrapped around the shaft. Looking for any guidance on how to address and if I am able to remove the tow rope are there any concerns of any seals or anything that could have been damaged. I see what looks like a black gasket by the rope but not sure

Pull pump off, then remove rope and make sure drive shaft is not bent. Do not try to remove intake grate.
