Have you pulled the power steering reservoir bracket? it's a big bolt but you don't need to remove it like i did you loosen it about 10 turns and the bracket will tip forward and slide out.

Anti Seize the Bolts when you get the new one in and the alignment pins i've heard horror stories of the timing cover cracking and breaking the threaded holes. and then you will be in for more money! I hate inspection time they try what ever they can to get your money so they can do the work. But great job on keeping at it!
