Well I think I solved it, my other working Taron provided the answer.

The "drum" is actually the part that moves back and forth when operating the focus lever. the two holes in the drum are probably locating holes for the shutter body.

It looks like you have to disassemble the shutter from the front to remove it from the focus helicoid.

By removing the grubscrews in the focus ring I can see the join of the brass helicod to the alumimnum body flange.

The old brass seizes in aluminum problem.

I think the shutter will have to be removed in order to apply heat to the helicoid.

pictures will follow
