The sprocket is on a taper.  They can really get locked on!  You need a puller to get it off.  I use an automotive tierod puller.  A little heat on the sprocket helps.

All gaskets and seals are available from Al.  Have a look at the main page for the parts supplier list.

And I assume you've figured out that the nut is left hand threaded.

you need a protective cap to keep from cracking or bending the countershaft end when you use the puller. Al has the pullers i think and may have the cap also.
 It would be a good idea to invest in a shop manual. keep you from making some expensive mistakes.
