NY Rear rotor stuck on e shaft

So it looks like there was a bearing failure on the rear rotor of the motor I am pulling apart(13b rew) I got the rear iron off and housing and now the rear rotor is frozen to the e shaft and won't come free and and stuck at this point I sprayed some penetrating oil and am letting it sit over night but am stuck and dont know what to do and don't want to destroy anything more then it is now was thinking of maby putting the rear housing and iron back on and using a impact on the flywheel nut to try and free it but not sure so any help would be great guys thx alot

i had the rear main gear stuck on e-shaft, we just beat the iron off and cut the bearing, bcause the e-shaft was fked anyway.

why don't you just pull the rotor, eccentric shaft, and center iron all in one go?
