Here is the bottom of the clutch, as said, it acts as the flywheel nut as well. The problem looks to be, getting a hold of it to remove it.

This is the tool commonly used to remove the clutch, but in your case, it looks took thick to get in there.

lavatan Have you figured it out yet?

The object which is in the way of the whole flywheel coming off, is threaded and is the nut which has to be turned to unscrew. It might be a left-hand thread, I don't know.

That is the starter clutch. You tap the ears on the bottom of it to the left. It threads on the shaft

There are some ball bearings in it what ever you do don't grease them during reassembling the engine
