As if i don't have enough problems already, now this...

I eliminated the dampener box to ease clutch bleeding and when I went to bleed the clutch I noticed the slave cylinder was leaking everywhere, so i got a rebuild kit. Once the slave was off and I took it apart I noticed that barrel shaped cylinder was seized and I couldn't get it out. The only pieces I successfully removed were the dust cover and the piston that protrudes from it. So I tightened the bleeder screw and hooked the slave back up to the line (unattached to the transmission) in hopes the pressure would push it out when I press the clutch.... and nothing. No pedal pressure and the fluid in the master cylinder does not move. Does this mean that I now have a bad slave and master cylinder? Someone please help me out on what is going on here.

The parts in the picture I haven't been able to remove are 30622-21u01 and the next 2 outwards

wow... thanks man... the cave man technique worked after about 12 min. of smashing it onto a block of wood then jamming it back inside over and over again. any recommendations for preventing this from happening again?
