But the part of the bore that is  preventing the piston from coming out isn't 
the part that is a sealing  surface...I'd get some fine emery cloth and knock 
the rust/corrosion down a bit,  then pop it out with air or inertia.  Should 
help to keep the piston  unscathed.

Jeff, t
he problem with cleaning the bore with emery cloth is holding  the piston out 
of the way. The spring is pushing the piston against the  corrosion. I can 
hold it back with a phillips screw driver but the screw driver  is now in the 
way of cleaning it out..
