I'm trying to source some information on disconnecting my 470 from the gimbal, then removing gimbal and engine from the boat. The drive is a prealpha. So far I have nothing disconnect except for the out drive.
 
remove the drive
remove the 3-4 front mounting lags and the 2 rear mount bolts and remove engine
remove steering ,hyd lines, remove bolts/nuts, remove inner housing
remove outer housing
 
This may help you with the parts descriptions:

Part that drive attaches to = Gimbal Bell
Part that Gimbal Bell and cylinders attach to = Gimbal Ring
Main housing that Gimbal Ring is suspended from = Gimbal Housing or Transom Housing
Articulating bearing within the Gimbal Housing = Gimbal Bearing

The plate on the inner side I believe is called the inner transom plate
Housing at rear of engine that connects the engine to the inner transom plate = Flywheel Cover (aka bell housing in the auto world)
