Default engine dissasembly

Hi, I own a 1/6th scale rambo. It has a .46force engine that has come to need some work done. I'm in need of a new starting pin and probably starting axle. The drama I'm having is how to actually dissasemble the engine to replace these parts. I've gotten to the point where I can see the con rod and crankshaft but can't for the life of me work out how to disconnect the con rod from the crankshaft, or the piston from the con rod. The starting pin has been broken off from con rod/crankshaft leaving a portion of it inside the crank. My question is how can I dissasemble the engine further to retrieve the portion of starting pin?

Once I can do that I'll be in the position where I won't know how to install the new starting pin, so I need assistance with how to do that too. Any help would be greatly appreciated. -cheers
