I wouldn't use the crank pulley bolt myself as you risk loosening it and you really don't want that happening.

Best way is to use an impact gun or use a screwdriver wedged in the teeth.

Or make your own flywheel locking tool, bolts up to one of the gearbox mounting bolt locations and wedges into the flywheel teeth

or if you cane get one bolt out make something like this

Nasty. Mine has a LUK in. Seems ok. Its been in since october but hasn't had much hammer yet.

Gotta say you've done a proper job on it.
