I have all the bolts out, and it wont even budge, I tried getting a razor blade up in there and some other little sharp blades but it just wont even move. I'm not reusing it so is there something i can put on it to get it loose?

Also tried putting a big screwdriver in the oil return line hole and pry it off, with no luck. :hmm:
 
A good thin putty knife and a hammer. Hammer the blade in and go around the pan with it. Or if you aren't worried about damaging the pan than just hammer a decent sized flat head in one corner and pry it off.
 
Get a stiff paint scraper in there and tap it with a hammer.

Thanks, I almost though i was going to kill myself when it finally went, but it did without breaking anything. :D thanks
