You made the same mistake many have before you. That bearing housing is a cage on the inside that supports the pinion shaft bearings and the pinion gear is on the inside of it. It can't be removed without taking the bull gear off the shaft and letting the bull gear drop down out of the pinion cage slot that the bull gear runs in. Pulling on the flange without removing the bull gear results in much grief as you have found out. You do not need to remove this cage (as others said) to replace the pinion seals. The seals run on the brake drum hub, so once you pull the brake drum off the pinion shaft, you can pry out the old seal and press in a new one. Hope you are able to get it fixed, but it's going to be a pretty big job now that the pinion housing is broken. Good luck, and you are not the first one to do this.
