Crank pulley Removal

I have an 81 F100 that has a 300 six and i am rebuilding it. I need to find out how to get the crankshaft pulley off so that i can acess the timing gears. The repair manuel that i have says to put the truck in gear to hold the crank in place, but that isnt working, the motor still turns a little and the bolt isnt comming loose. Has anyone out there had this problem in this type truck before? and if so, how did you fix it?
thanks in advance. There are pictures in my album labled Blakhawk

You can wedge a pry bar between the flywheel teeth and transmission bell housing to keep the crankshaft from turning.

Will that damage the flywheel? or would it be ok to pull the oil pan and take the crank out with the pulley still on it?
