If all the screws are out it may be seized on the dowls and/or gear selector shaft

You'll be hard pressed to find an original exhaust in good condition. Keep an eyeing on eBay. The are suppliers that do aftermarket full systems too but they won't be cheap

To aid removal of the stuck cover; Use the clutch lever to pump the casing off the crankcase a small amount.
Then place a small wedge in the gap and repeat.
Ensure to apply even pressure at the opposite side of the cover by the selector shaft and pull the cover off squarely.

He may have tips.
