ANSWER is there a 'rope trick' for removing the cam gear?? 700 1992

I almost always forget to loosen this bolt before removing the timing belt. I could bring over the air wrench, but the effort is even less, just holding a box end wrench over the bolt and whacking the end of the wrench with a rubber mallet. Poor man's impact wrench, I call it. The cam and even the I-shaft give plenty of inertial counterhold.
