Being the type of person that i am if it had not come loose the first day the head would have been off and the pan layen on the ground already . More then likely ya got two stuck with two almost at the top and two at the bottom of the stroke and you will not get much help from tryen to turn the crank . SOOOOoooooo if ya want to try and save as much as you can i myself would take a cylinder hone to the rusted sleeves and give it a light hone job to get the surface rust off the walls then clean up as well as you can Then take some ZEP penetrating fluid if you can find it or if not then i guess ya can use PB blasters then take a good piece of oak and a small hammer like 4-10 lbs range and give them a couple good solid hits and see if it will move . Learned the hard was that getting a pry bar on a flywheel tooh makes for some interesting word when ya bust a couple teeth off it Then ya get to lean how to split a tractor to REPLACE WHAT YA broke . The way i do it will give ya a heads up on what the inside looks like and then you can decide what is needed to make it all well , do i just need a set of rings and some clean up or do i need to sleeve her and rebuild her , well since i have the head off already i might just as well do a valve job and be done with that too. When it is all done and she fires for the first time and it runs like the day she was new ya forget about all the hard work ya put into it and if well taken care of you can pass it on to the kids .
