2007 400 Max XT Stator Cover removal help needed

A tree branch poked the stator wire into the case. (weird…I know but true…see images) I need to remove the case in order to replace the wiring grommet to it’s correct location.
I’ve removed many bolts but am stuck on what is next. I have a repair manual but it doesn’t specifically help so I am hoping you can.

Do I need to remove the starter?
Do I need to remove the water pump?
Do I need to remove the front and rear propeller shafts? Or will the case split after I remove the bolts on the outer case that hold the shaft housing?

I’ve drained the oil and anti freeze. I’ve got the machine jacked up on right side to give it a tilt of about 45 degrees.

Any help will be much appreciated. 🙂
