Thats a hard one to put into words. However the Bentley and the Haynes
manuals
shows this very well in their pictorials. I know the pump will get in the
way on assembly if it is not held in but I don't think this was a hindrance
when I disassembled the units. I seem to remember it sort of popping apart
via the tension
of the springs inside. There are two ways to split it, depending on
which half you want the adapter plate to go with. The manual shows the
adapter plate staying with the gear case not the overdrive unit.
Sorry its been too long.
