Matthew,
It IS glued in place! There should be gasket sealer all around the cap
to block, plus some actual seals too.
I'm not sure about the 3 bearing engine, but I seem to remember that
there is a hole in the rear cap, right in the center. Take a look, it
may be threaded. If not, try to find a rod that you can put into it and
move it back and forth. Do not use anything to pry the cap out,
everything in there is a machined surface.
Peace,
Pat
