guys, I have an issue after capsizing last week, my mast top pulley is jammed with gravel, clay and sand and the pulley wheel will not spin anymore. I have had the mast top off and in a bucket of water for a week now. I keep trying to work the wheel free, but this think is not budging. I have taken off my old mast top from an old damaged mast. but now I have no idea how to get the mainsail halyard through with that big end on one side and the shackle on the other side. So I can's move this to the other mast top. Any info would be greatly appretiate it.

If I where you, You could either drill out the machine rivet, and pull the wheel out, then clean ti out, and put the wheel back on with a bolt.
