Clutch help on 07 Skidoo 500ss

Went to put on a new track over the weekend and encountered a problem right out of the gate. Went to take the belt off and tool to spread the clutch sheaves will not work. Not sure if something broke off on the inside or if the hole is just stripped. Tool goes in an inch or so and then just spins. Tried to old school manual belt removal and cant get sheaves to spread that way either. Tried tool from my 09 doo and that fit better but when it got to the point where it should start moving the sheaves it too seemed stripped. While running clutch seams to engage and disengage normally....Any reccomendations would be appreciated.

Before you panic make sure that you are using the right hole (please no snickering) in the clutch, if you are not sure snap a picture of the clutch and I an sure someone can help.
