Answer
The pulley you are working with is the stack pulley.  If you removed the large bolt holding the stack pulley to the crankshaft then the pulley should just pull/slide off.  Of course it is stuck on due to rust and debris over years of use.  You can try using a pulley puller, heating, or soaking with pentrating fluid.

Those pulleys are soft and easy to bend or collapse if you use a puller, so be careful.
Let me know if this helps.
