You need to slide out the 'L' shape washer that is underneath it, they do slide out, and once out will give you enough leverage to get the pump off the chain....Just make sure you remember to put it back again on removal, this 'L' washer/plate is VERY IMPORTANT to to survival of the engine....

Apparently not all gti6's have them in How is this possible? I have checked on Servicebox, and found that there is only one oil pump chain listed for all phases's of the XU10J4RS engine. If you remove this 'L' shape washer then you will incur more slack in the chain. Also, the oil pump retaining bolts will tend to "bottom out" in there holes and the oil pump will simply circulate oil through it and back to sump during operation, rendering engine damage fairly quickly.
