Andy,
I replaced the gasket on my TR6's Timing cover several years ago. That
extension bolt is right hand (normal) treaded so keep on tugging. Mine
was a real bear to get off also. I forget the size but I had to borrow
a neighbor's box end wrench 'cause I don't have a set that goes that
large. BTW the extension is held to the crankshaft pulley by two ( I
believe) locating dowels. So you'll have to give the extension a couple
of gentle taps after you finally get the big old bolt out.
bye for now
