After you remove the oil pump, install this handy device into the pump opening up against the cam gear. (Make sure it doesn't touch the gear.) Adjust the bolts and you'll see the tool move outward. This puts pressure from the inside out and pushes the case halves apart. Now, that sure beats hammering on the engine case to split it apart.
