Default 53 pan clutch hub nut

Hello:
I'm new to this whole forum thing. I have a 53 pan/shovel, have had it for 11 yrs, but never had to work on tranny b4. Is the clutch hub nut left hand threads ? I'm thinking it is & don't want to hit it with the impact, till I know ??? going to look for repair manual, anyone know? Also looks like a seal inside the nut, anything else to know about removing the clutch hub ?

the manual shows no notes about the clutch hub nut being left hand thread- the seal in the middle is an oil seal for the clutch rod

in any case don't use an impact, it can really screw up the shifter dogs/forks

* sprocket lock nut is left hand thread
