It was pretty corroded, and I thought seized.  Had I known it was actually the pistons seized I probably wouldn't have disassembled it.  The good news is it's nearly impossible to reassemble it wrong.  That little screw is really the key to correct reassembly -  it registers the shaft position relative to the plate, which should be the first step of reassembly.  It's hidden under a Welch plug though, and if you try to disassemble without finding and removing it first, it will snap (as I have proven).
