Hi Price,
I think the easiest way to lock the flywheel is to jam a suitably sized
piece of steel or even a long socket between a ring gear tooth and a bolt
in one of the starter bolt holes.
Sometimes takes a bit of fiddling around to get a good lock but it does
work and you are very unlikely to damage anything.
