If you can get an air impact gun in there, that will take off the crank pulley nut.

What is more worrisome is removing the cover itself:
1. Use lots of penetrating oil.
2. Go around the gasket with a razor to cut loose as much gasket as possible.
3. Several small screwdrivers inserted between the cover and block will pry it off. The key is to get leverage in several areas OR IT WILL BREAK.

Hopefully you are more lucky than I was last year. After trying everything I could I ended up having to break my cover off in pieces. It was corroded onto the studs real bad. Now my A12 wears the cover from an A14...
