it has to be pressed out! and the bracket does has to be off the motor!
i have done it different 2 times i've cut the out side and removed it that way and rewelded back once i clamped it back together! i did it that way because i don't have access to a press!

Make sure the bracket isn't cracked. I had to have mine TIG'ed cause it was cracked in two places. Its a real pain but take your time.
