How to get to Distributor bearing?
Decided to take apart my old distributor last night to try to replace the bearing. I managed to remove everything except for the bearing itself.
The question of the day is... How do I get into the section that is enclosed by the two magnetic "thingies" and the gear?
I can see the 3 screws that hold in the cover.
There is also what looks like a small pin (a tubular peice of metal) in one of the magnetic sections. Should I try to remove this? and what is the trick to get it out..

remove the 3 screws. DO NOT damage the oil seal when removing it. The bearing itself can be purchased but the oil seal cannot, they are both half sizes. The bearing i believe was like $35 or so.

Wow should have done this instead of buying a whole new distributor. I thought Honda never sold distributor bearings. Did you purchase yours from somewhere else? If so what size or type did you ask for?
