Bummer that it's on there so tight(generally rusted in place)- yes they should slide off with little to no effort. I didn't watch the vid- when you heat something for removal, you want to heat/expand the item that's over the shaft. Did he ruin the clutch Sheave/plate when he heated it? If the old engine isn't going to be used again then using a pry bar while tapping the end of the shaft will usually pop it loose, (using a pry bar can possibly crack the aluminum housing).
