Item 19 is a shifter shaft seal, not the counter shaft seal. I don't think there even is a forward countershaft seal....the shaft just sits in the case and does not go thru.
If it is indeed the shifter shaft you are trying to remove, they can be a bit stubborn. You are not far off with your idea about the screw driver and hammer to pry it out, however you must use caution that you do not score the shaft. Puncture the metal of the seal and pry it as best you can.
