Maybe I'm slow, but I need a little more help

I was told this...

...Remove the capscrews under the pulley mounting flange and the shaft, spacers, & bevel gear will all slide out with a bit of assistance.
Remove the cap screw on the end of the shaft and all the parts can be pulled off...

I thought the "cap screw" meant on the end of the pulley mount, in the center, which you can see on the picture below. But no such luck, unless I'm not seeing it because it's covered in dirt? If not, then where are these cap screws that will help me put this belt pulley back together?
 
which you can see on the picture below.

Is there supposed to be a picture attached? David................
 
Yup. Forgot to add it.

Mike if you spin the pulley won't the assembly screw in and out.

Never been into one but I am sure it has to be a worm gear. So it has to screw in and screw out.

Mike, the shaft and retainer in the picture will slide out of the housing. The bearing is holding it(probably rust). Get a slide hammer puller or something similar and attach to holes where pulley fastens and pull it out.

There is nothing inside holding it in.

Check the bearings, they may be pitted and rough from years of non-use and moisture collecting in gearbox.
 
Mike, once you remove the assembly per Dave S.'s post below, you will then see the 'cap screw' that wayne in mn described in the second sentence. On my '51 H gearbox assembly, the output shaft bevel gear was held in place with two screws that were safety wired together. Also, not being a RTV silicone fan, I used Permatex #2 between the shims to seal it up. Running Hytran in the transmission, the Permatex holds up well.
 
Cap screw is just another name for a bolt.

So the first part refers to the three cap screws around the retainer, the ones that you already have out.

The second part seems to refer to the cap screw that holds the bevel gear on the INNER end of the pulley shaft, to allow you to slip the assorted bearings, spacers, washers and seals and the retainer off of the shaft. (According to the parts books, some have a shaft machined to take a washer and slotted nut instead of a cap screw in that spot.) The bolt in question in this second part I don't think is at all relevant to you getting this thing back into place and bolted down.
 
Have you tried using a hammer and a block of wood to gently drive the shaft back in place? I think all that has happened is that the outer bearing race is partly out of it's bore and has become slightly misaligned. A few good whacks, or maybe just one, will probably put it back in place. Support it with a little upward pressure while you are doing this and it may just pop back in with one blow.
 
Mike,
Had to remove the pully on my 450-D because the seal leaked. What I did was put the pully back on and tapped on the pully with an iron bar from the other side. A few taps on the pully and shaft came out. Took the shaft to a friend that works at an IH dealer and he put a new seal in. I think he had to pull the gear and bearing off to install the seal. Once you get the seal replaced, you can just pop it back in and tighten up the 3 bolts/cap screws. Hope this helps. Al
