Default old evinrude 40hp motor

I have just taken the foot of my old 40 hp twin ski evinrude . I
wanted to put in a new water pump assembly. The trouble is the drive
shaft stuck into the power head and pulled away from the gear box. I
can't for the life of me free it from the power head and I am trying
to contain the exercise.
Has anyone got any special tricks in freeing the shaft and avoiding a
major pull down.
