I am currently in the process of removing the timming gear case so i can change out the broken powr-trol pump shaft. My question is does the governor have to come off before i can pull the timing gear case off. the starter looks like it can stay in place. thanks for all the feedback in advance

Governor case should be taken off and opened up for inspection. The weights have been known to wear through and fly off which results in a run away.
Pay particular attention to the cam idler gear, bearings and stub shaft. Any wear or play will eventually result in broken parts.
There is a service bulletin about drilling, taping and grub screwing the shaft if required.
