Simon,
The oil pump housing (#61) is press fit in the OD casing. Removing the
two screws (#63) and washers (#64) to get a socket on the threaded plug
(#62) shouldn't mess things up. See tool 18G183 in the workshop manual
- it's what's used to remove the pump after removing parts #65 - 69.
Cheers,
Bob Haskell
