Pinions Seal Replacement: Big Problem? 120-130

I'm in the process of changing out my rear pinion seal. Got the pinion nut off in about 3 seconds with an impact, pulled the pinion off, and was feeling good about my progress.

Then I tried to remove the "dust cover and oil slinger" referred to in the Haynes manual, and encountered a major problem. I cannot seam to get this "dust cover" out. It is pretty well mangled at this point after repeated attempts to pry it out. I'm pretty much stuck until I can get it removed.

Have I made a serious misstep at some point along the way? Is this a part that should be so difficult to remove? It's pretty clear it's trashed at this point . . . are they still available?
