I’m using  a Mann W723/3 screw on Cartridge.  Mine is a Wessex Workshop conversion fitted about 10y ago.

I had the same issue with my low chassis 2 litre.  I had to remove (in my case drill out) the pin (taper?) that holds the yoke in place, then remove the bearing casting, leaving the bendix in place.  Then remove the bendix and shaft.  I found my bendix bolts using a magnet on a stick.  Refitting is the reverse and you have to feel the shaft back into the rear bearing.  This gets easier when you’ve done it several times. I generally remove the bendix every couple of years to check on the bolts!  The yoke is now held on the shaft using a nut and bolt, but carefully filed to ensure it doesn’t catch on the bearing mounting bolts.
