Question Having problems with my snout

Trying to remove the snout, anyone know a good way to remove it without damaging the snout?
Cannot see a good way to do it, without sticking a big screwdriver between the snout and the supercharger.

Yes Jaguar and Eaton put a spot to pry the snout off the SC. It's on the bottom so you can't see it very well when it's in the car.




There is no gasket and Jaguar does specify what to use when re-assembling it.




But people have used other sealants so it's up to you.
