Weld or braze the jaws to a large nut the size of the arm, slip it over the arm, and run the (admittedly large) bolt in to pull the arm out to be flush with the tip of the post. The puller would be compact enough to get into the space. From there, perhaps the arm will be free enough to get off.

Yeah, I think heat is going to be a key factor here. I'm starting to think some previous mechanic used the Loctite on the bearing surface instead of the pin's screws.
