It sounds like it is the same flywheel as what is on the pro kit. Although it is not perfectly square there may be enough material to get some bite with a crescent wrench.

Okay sounds like I might have a few options.

In terms of the smacking of it using the glowplug wrench, I tend not to have those things work for me very easily. Instead I bought a battery terminal puller to help me remove the flywheel.
