Success!

Heat on the crank and a little on the flange, screw off, the thread was a stud screwed into the end of the crank to hold it on the taper. Also screwing the thing to the bench helped a lot too! This gen set has done a lot of hours smile always had regular oil changes.
see pics and thanks for the interest cheers
