Trick To Get The Cam Cover Off?

#1
1993 w/1.6 engine -

There are four long bolts which definitely hold the cam cover on and two short bolts near the timing belt end which may hold it on.

All of them are off and the cover still seems like it might be welded on. There are no sticking-out bosses to tap on and I am Extremely reluctant to try hammering a wedge into the gasket to pry it off.

So how do you all get them off? What's the trick?
