Weasel will become famous soon enough
No need for the oversized breaker bar on this crank pulley, the belt part of the pulley comes off seperately from the balancer part. Just forget about the big main center bolt and go for the ring of 8 torx head bolts, nothing easier! Just make note of the alignment pin when putting it back on.

But you're right, this is easier than just about any DOHC V6 timing belt.

Oh yeah to add to what Tony just said, reverse thread on the fan clutch. And I do find that a long flat blade wedged on the left side of the pulley paired with the long 32mm wrench on the clutch bolt is usually enough to break it free, I do have the crows foot wrench w/bar for my air hammer for the stubborn ones.
