The bolts are out but I'm having trouble getting the cover off because of the clearances. Is it possible? Or do you need to start removing radiator hoses, etc.?

Hi everyone,
As you all know, Coffee (Dean) passed away a couple of years ago. I am Dean's ex-wife's husband and happen to have spent my career in tech. Over the years, I occasionally helped Dean with various tech issues.
When he passed, I worked with his kids to gather the necessary credentials to keep this site running. Since then (and for however long they worked with Coffee), Woodschick and Dirtdame have been maintaining the site and covering the costs. Without their hard work and financial support, CafeHusky would have been lost.
Over the past couple of weeks, I’ve been working to migrate the site to a free cloud compute instance so that Woodschick and Dirtdame no longer have to fund it. At the same time, I’ve updated the site to a current version of XenForo (the discussion software it runs on). The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.
Unfortunately, the new software version doesn’t support importing the old site’s styles, so for now, you’ll see the XenForo default style. This may change over time.
Coffee didn’t document the work he did on the site, so I’ve been digging through the old setup to understand how everything was running. There may still be things I’ve missed. One known issue is that email functionality is not yet working on the new site, but I hope to resolve this over time.
Thanks for your patience and support!

It is tight but does come out. Push the rad hoses around to do it. Going in is a bit of a pain because of the gasket being disturbed.

Wow. Nightmare job for a 3 minute check. I had to remove the radiator bolts and the water pump cover and pull it out of the way. Then it was just possible. The nut holding the impeller on was completely rusted, like you see on underwater wrecks. Curious.
