Default Junk ebay timing tools

Went to do my daughter's new 1.6 WT fiesta timing belt. Bought the tool kit off ebay ($60), and this happened to the crank holding tool when I tried to crack the crank bolt.



It's a casting, and the quality looks terrible. Not sure why when it could have easily been made on a punch. I now have a 5mm piece of casting in my bell housing somewhere - hope that doesn't cause a problem.

Now I need to work out how to undo and redo the crank bolt without this tool. Does anyone in North Brisbane have a loaner? Should I just hold it with the engine in 4th gear to undo, then to redo, use the crank holding pin for the first torque setting, then engine in 4th to angle torque?

My impact I think is not big enough for this job.

Damien
