In continuing the progress on the Oliver 159 lathe here is update #3 and a plea for help from someone who knows how to do this.
Here is the prior update.

I got started on the motor and drive system tonight, I started off by taking the drive system apart to remove the motor. I was able to get the keepers off and the spring, outer pulley, drive belt, but got stuck on removing the inner. I am of the opinion that I need to remove this inner pulley/shaft to get to the motor out of the housing. Then there are 4 bolts to remove and the motor comes out of the housing.
I thought at first there would be a allen screw holding it in place and didn't find that, so then I thought it was a drift pin that I could tap on through...it didn't budge, but then I didn't want to whack the heck out of it if that wasn't the correct procedure. So here is where I need someones help to tell me how to remove this. I hope the last two pictures are clear enough to show my problem. The pictures show opposing sides of the shaft.
The first picture is of the motor and drive system with most of the paint off....except those cussed tight spots I need to do by hand.
Got some new accessories on the way from Hartville tool that my lovely bride ordered today, much to my surprise...she is a keeper!
Thanks again for looking.
