Rocker gear comes of as one assembly anyway. Remove timing chain/gear by putting a large screwdriver through the holes in the gear, bracing it against the head, and undo the bolt.

Obviously don't put the screwdriver where the rocker cover gaskets going to be

I usually brace it either on the first rocker gear bearing shell, or where the gasket goes. As long as you are sensible it doesn't do any damage.

I've got a foot lengh of 25mm square tube and at the end welded on is two 6" lengths making a Y shape, welded a large bolt on each part of the Y and there you have a cam gear brace. Very very handy.
