Thank you all for your advice, to bad we can't all agree on what to do....The shaft does have a key way and does use a bolt to pull the clutch and hold in on the shaft. Maybe that information will help clear up what I ought to do with it. At this time I am considering a very light sanding to remove old scale and rust, light oil, wipe off, then very light antiseze or light grease coat to prevent rust, then tighten to torque specs. But...open to any advice still, as usual, one project has lead to another, the only time I can pull the engine out of the machine is if the clutch is off...after my experance pulling this one off, I don't want to risk breaking a new clutch ($500) so before I put it back on, I am pulling the engine to clean, repaint and rewire, and anything else I might find to do before putting it all back together.

Thanks for any advice.
