Hi guys,
Every tutorial on the web I see implies it's really easy to remove the wiring harness on top of the top timing belt cover (#3?) but I can't figure out how to do it.
How is it done?

hopefully u got this figured by now? I honestly can't picture in my head how you are/were stuck.
(and my first thought "use your hands" seemed like a derisive response...)

I found a picture online eventually and got it. Got the water pump out too; I just have a mystery gold washer that fell out, not referred to in any diagram
That's a crush washer, like a gasket that probably goes over one of the bolts. Look for a weep hole or a place where water (coolant) could get by.
See if it goes behind the tensioner on the pivot bolt. There's one on the 3400 truck engine, for sure, not sure on car v6.

Yup that's where it goes, thanks!
