    Hyway those alignment pins on the ends of the head are threaded ! squirt pb blaster and let them soak ,,then a good set of vice grips should get them out for you.
    Good luck on the surgery !!!

    I don't know what those pins look like, but if they are threaded you should be able to put two nuts on it and lock them against each other. Then just put a wrench on the inside nut and back it out.

    Oh, and good luck under the knife.
