Never use any sort of screwdriver etc. to lock the engine. I see so many cases with bits of cowling missing on the top where people have done this. Apart from the fact it's bodging and not nessasary, it also means, in theory your engine no longer conforms. Removing any part of the forced air cooling system of which this forms a part, can be considered to be performance enhancing.
There are several simple ways to remove this bolt. The easiest is an impact gun, but you can simulate this yorself by just putting a ring spanner on it and shocking it around with a mallet or hammer, almost always works.
Failing this, undo the 3 bolts holding the starter on and put a 19mm socket on the flywheel nut, job done.
