If you can't split it you haven't got all the bolts. Turn the block over and look in the water jackets on the opposite side. There is a bolt that runs the other way to most of them that is hard to see.

Also there is a bolt right through the middle which is really hard to spot! I took me half an hour to find it! Did you get it split? i think i may have a photo on my other pc if i can get to it.
