So I'm removing the head from the block in my garage.  The head is off but the timing chain guide is stopping the complete removal.  How does one remove the guide?  I see it's a threaded insert and I used a matching bolt with a washer in the attempt to pull it out.  Do I need a special tool such as this?

Well I broke a small bolt off inside the pin- but I have left handed bits and a extractor. Didn't need the extractor- just a punch and the bit plus a needlenose pliers. I used some acetone /ATF mix over the area and the pin just started to spin. Ugh. I tried a different nut/washer set up and a pry bar with success. The head is off!
