How do you separate...

Any ideas on how to non-destructively separate something that has been bolted
together for 60 years? The assembly is a WW II aerial base made up of a cast
iron plate, rubber gasket (which seems still pliable at the edges), and a
phenolic insulator. All parts are made of unobtanium. The cast iron plate needs
to have some big chips welded, thanks to UPS miss-treatment.

Any ideas would be appreciated. It is not easy to apply axial force to the
thing.

TIA,
John
