If that's the case there's nothing to grip or pry on except for the old, brittle electrical connector visible on top. When it breaks off (as mine did), you may find the only practical way to get it out is to drop the clutch and remove the flywheel (as I did), and drift it down and out into the bell housing. A real PITA, but I had a few WYIT's that needed doing anyhow (though I had hoped to do them somewhere in the future).

Is it not possible to extract it by drilling through and pulling upwards...with something?
