Changing lid on a Stewart vacuum fuel pump

 I have a crack in the fitting on my Stewart vacuum fuel pump. I bought a new lid at Hershey but when trying to swap the gutts,  I’m having trouble removing the needle for the vent (the outer most needle). It moves up and down and spins freely but won’t come out of its housing.
  Has any one successfully done this? Can you shed some light on how this reluctant piece comes out? It’s conspiring to annoy me!
