Drill a 3/8 hole in the dowel, fill the hole nearly full with grease, then take a grade 5 bolt with the threads cut off, start the 3/8
bolt in the hole then hit the bolt with a 3 or 4lb hammer, the grease will push the dowel out, same thing works for
removing a pilot bushing except there is no hole to drill.
I've done this before and does work. Alternatively you could drill the front of the block where the dowel pin is and use a drift punch to tap it out. Might be worthwhile to do that anyway as the alignment dowels are rarely clocked at the right spot the first time anyway.
