So when I tried to removed the crank pulley to remove the oil pump, I pulled the pulley but it only removed the parts where the compressor and power steering belt drive on, so the one where to timming belt goes on is still on the crank. So when I looked at it I put a pry bar to it to try to remove it and all it did is take a piece of the pulley. So my question now is how do I get it off? Can I just unbolt the oil pump and pull the pump and hope the pulley comes off or how could I do it to remove it?
I really want to do it this weekend so your cooperation is greatly appreciated.

Just spray it with some PB blaster. Then put two flat head screw drivers behind the pulley on opposite sides and push gently with equal force. It will slide right off. I had the same problem last week. I chipped the pulley slightly too.
