Got a used 1999 345 with the Powerflow that seems like it has been in place for 13 years.
Won't come off.
Won't come off.
I have the powerflow, and can't visualize what part we are looking at here. Would you back away and take a picture so we get some perspective of what/where the close-up is at? I see grass and what looks like mud.
OK
After finding this drawing on jdparts, I am thinking this pin you are hammering on (which should be somewhat pointed) is bolted to the powerflow (item #36) and engages into the bracket #37 which is in turn bolted to the deck.
Under your written words " this part " there are two bolts. I suggest removing those two bolts and taking the bracket off the deck giving more room to put penetrating oil for possible removal without the hammmering (twisting instead). Worse comes to worse, also remove the pin 36 too, and see if you can get those replaced.
those 2 bolts that hold the bracket on the deck just put a box end wrench on the head and a socket on the bolt and twist them off. No need to try and save those 2 bolts.

Select 345 model, list item 2428
then 'attachments' go to bagger, not MC519 cart
then 'section', I picked 50" as that seemed to fit best with your pic.
then 'powerflow housing and brackets'
but you can pick mower deck size as different powerflow for different decks
Sometimes have to wander around a bit to get to the parts needed. I wasn't sure what your deck size is, so guessed.
