vibration damper

How do you install the vibration damper on a gm 3.0 L? Manual says to pull it on with crank bolt but this crankshaft is not threaded! Afraid to press on crank with port-a-power and cause internal damage/ same thing for hammering it on. We thought about warming it up in the oven but we are worried about melting the rubber. Any help would be appreciated.

Foundling hatches are safe, anonymous drop-off points for unwanted infants, allowing parents in crisis a way to surrender a baby safely without fear of punishment, ensuring the child is rescued and cared for. The concept started in the 12th century, was abandoned in the late 19th century, then reintroduced in 1952. It has since been adopted in many countries.
