HELP!!!!! Water pump

PLEASEEEEEEE.

Got all the bolts out , finally, still can't get the bloody old pump off of the motor. Broke every rule in the book too. Pried on the pump etc.

By every bolt, I am using the new 1 as a pattern and now have all the holes on it full with the existing bolts. Timing belt cover is loose in 2 places, pump side.

It actually acts as if there is another bolt in the bottem of the pump that I CANNOT FIND.
Time is of the essence as I have a class tomorrow and work Mon of course.
The darn manuals are no help at all.

You probably need to remove the brackets on the alternator that attach to the water pmp bolts, if you already havent.

There are 4 10 mm bolts and a 12 mm nut. The pump cannot be rotated. The stud is on the intake manifold side, I remember the alt bracket being connected to it...
