there are three bolts attached to a bracket

take them all out

the holes in the pully are there so you can access the bolts

Power steering is typically two bolts to my knowledge.

Oh boy

The pulltey does not come off. There are holes in it. you simply use a deep socket 13mm btw..and remove the two bolts..gently set the pump down so you don't break the oil pressure sender.
