Default How to get pulley off of pump

I've removed my water pump, but I want to check out the weep hole before decided its defective & buying a new one.

How do I get the pulley off?? There must be a trick or something to this.

Yeah, its leaking...my hope was I'd find anobvious bad driver side gasket once the pump was off. But the gasket looks okay.

I wanted to double check the weep hole, and didnt realize how bad it was to take off the pulley.
