The clip is circular, goes around the cyl, and has 2 blades that project inwards. They slip into grooves on the rear of the cyl that are on the sides (front and rear, not top & bottom) and catch on barbs located in the grooves. Can't see that worth a crap in your pics because everything is so filthy and rusty but it's all down in there somewhere. To remove, use a small screwdriver to pry the blades of the clip away from the barbs. Once you get that, you won't have any trouble with step 2.
