Hi Russ,
the pins can be removed from either direction. Some can be a real bear, others not so bad. Same thing with the drive piece, no fixed rule about the difficulty. Sometimes it helps to heat up the cam with a torch, if that doesn't help ease removal, then a long drift may be needed to tap the drive out. Any good hardware store will have a long piece of bar stock that will work as a nice punch.
I've taken quite a few drives on early cars out to solve the chronic leaking problem built in by the drive being holow. Welding or plugging the Drive Hole made for nice leak free distribs.
