OK, there is a threaded hole in the drum in the same bolt circle as the
flatheaded screws that hold the drum on (you did take them out right?)

Put a 3/8-24 Grade 5 bolt in that hole and tighten it down. Play the anvil
chorus on the drum with a hammer (not too hard - we want vibration) and
tighten the boltpreviously mentioned . THis should pop the rust free and
let the drum come off.

I will also assume you've backed off the brake adjusters and the like...
