I have looked for a flywheel inspection cover, so I can use a bar to hold crankshaft to remove retaining bolt, I cannot see such a cover.

Put a breaker bar underneath, lock it in place and then crank engine over-make sure you disable the ignition system or use an impact wrench-

You can try dropping the starter motor and go thru there
