This cam won´t come out!

The heads are out so are the lifters, I´ve
tried to take out the cam with the sprocket
as a help, I rotate a little and draw but it does not came out.
Any ideas or tricks?
Thanks

It's probably hitting a rod.

Rotate the crank about 45°.

Did you take out the screws holding the thrust plate under the timing gear?
