QUESTION: are there different size pilot bearings for the 1973 145?

I don't see very well, so if the answer is obvious, take it easy on me because I'm working more by feel than by sight. I'm swapping out the BW35 and replacing it with M40 in my 1973 145. The pilot bearing I got with the clutch kit does not fit inside the crank. I can't see if there is a sleeve inside the back of the crank for the auto input shaft, but it feels like there is. I tried using a pick, but I had no luck. If there is a sleeve, it's too thin to use the old bread trick to remove it.

The OD of the bearing I have is 1.378in, and it's too big.
