Problem solved!!!
I removed the shaft with the poly v belt on it and was able to get behind the quill and tap it out. it was corroded to the alluminum. I cleaned up the shaft and the housing and used some dry lube and everything is working fine!
Thanks for everyones input!

Frozen Quill
Great Job.
Did you by any chance take some photos of this process? You are a giant step ahead of me in the race to understand what goes on inside of that headstock.
In twenty years I've not had any of the headstock parts removed other than the quill. It came out about a month ago for the first time.
It's sawdust time!
