2nd'd I thought I was really careful with the disassembly but as I was putting the plate back up, 2 little dink-dink's later, I had plastic pieces fall in my nose.

Also, the oil-cap tool that I originally bought, 65mmx14 did absolutely not work. I measured with my micrometer and sure enough, the tool was indeed, 65mmx14. Measuring the plastic oil cap, that was 65.4mm (2.575" per the micrometer). Going to autozone, I found "Oil Filter "F" Cap Wrench 25404" @ $5.99 . The autozone part number appears to be #153161. I measured it with the micrometer before I bought it, and it was 2.570" (~65.28mm) and it fit MUUCH better than the 65mm wrench. I dont know what kind of grease toyo used, but I had to paper-towel this cap wrench to break the seal, then the tool worked quite well. If you don't have the Toyo part or other known good cap wrench, this one worked well for me.
