Default camshaft pulley nut too hard

I have to change the camshaft oil seal and i tried to unscrew the retaining nut but it's too hard: is there a secret to do it?

It's not a retaining nut, you have to remove the bolt inside the big nut. Then pull off the cam gear.

Make sure you haven't deformed the key way in either the camshaft or the part you're calling a "nut".

Thank you guys, i read how to remove the pulley in clark's garage. In the procedure talk about 3 seals: the shaft seal, one oring and a little seal in the back of the pulley housing. I watched for it in the parts catalog but i didn't found it... Do you know the part number?
