sure... you could torch it off.
i'd be expecting to replace the pto shaft seal and bearing.. maybee just seal.
as for the fire melting the drawbar? um.. maybee the sheaft beat the drawbar and it looks melted.
as to get REAL hot to melt steel.. figure 2500f for mild as a starting poiint. your burning grease / pto shield was probably around 1850-1900f
ps.. kroil is a penetrant oil from kano labs... a lil more $$ and may work better than more common PB oil..

I was hoping I wouldn't have to but it seems I might.
What about just heating it up a bit and trying to use a crowbar to get it off?
Annoying thing is I can't even get it to move a bit to a position where the lock that holds it on will stay undone.
