I see no way to remove it as a unit. but what I did was to put the allen in the set screw and spray and then tapped it. It finally came loose.
there was a trick the locksmith told me when putting it in and it has been so long I can not remember. It seems I had to follow the part in from the back some how, wish I could remember. If it comes to me I will post it. or maybe someone can help us out. I just freed some large house screw jacks that where frozen solid since I got them and maybe some 20 years plus. I use Edd's Red solution 1/3 trans fluid 1/3 acetone 1/3 kerosene and when it freed these parts It became my cheap replacement for PB blaster my old favorate, might give it a try.
