ES motor mounts

I made the mistake of thinking I could do these myself.
I've got the rubber crap out of one, but the metal ring that's left seems pretty substantial and doesn't want to budge. None of the local shops that are open on Saturday have a press.
Now I'm in a pickle. I'd prefer not to wait until Monday for a shop to open.
Anyone have any tricks for removing the metal ring?

The surrounding thin ring?
Cutting wheel on a dremel and some pliers.
