power steering pulley install

I've seen the installers that you thread into the pump, but my pump has a hex opening in the shaft. Is there a tool designed for this kind of pump?

There are threads farther down inside the hex shaped hole. You just need a regular power steering pulley installer. The hex shape is apparently only there for when its assembled at the factory.

If they were there before, they def aren't now! So I guess I'll just get the installer and hope it threads in there good enough to get the job done.
