Strike it gently with a brass drift several times at several locations in between the bolt holes. I’ll repeat, be gentle and persistent as. You don’t want to damage the CV joints inside. If you’ve soaked it with penetrating oil you just need to break the rust bond. The cv joint will probably come ap...
