Front Drivers have Limited Pivot

I bought a used Lionmaster Challenger 6-82694. The engine runs pretty well, but there are a few things I need to take care; like the packing in the smoke unit is toast. But what I did find was something weird and new to me.

I noticed the front power drivers pivot fully to one side of the engine but not to the other side (see included pics).

Here's a pic of full rotation to one side:

And here's the limited rotation to the other side:

This is literally as far as it will go! Has anyone encountered this problem before?

I have to open the engine in order to repack the smoke unit no matter what, but I've never opened up one of these before.

Do any of you out there in "OGRR Land" have experience in taking the boiler shell off of one of these. Your experience would be greatly appreciated!
