Since your inner gear got sheared, it leaned on the woodruff key quite hard and may make removal of the gear a bit hard. A small two jaw gear puller would work to draw the gear off the cam.

Thank you very much. Those are great info. I have puller that I can use to pull it off. Thank you again. I think I will replace the inner gear and set the timing. Then try to turn it to see if the cam is ok. Once that is set, I will run another leak down test.
