you got it right Rocky,  motor rotates
clockwise as facing it from the fronts.
S othe wrench goes on top the inner
right fender well or from underneath,
up against the left side frame rail section.
Blip the starter and the nut spins right off.

Am I correct in assuming you want to remove the bolt that holds the harmonic
balancer onto the crankshaft without removing the engine?
