Blown Header Gasket Removal

I've had a blown header gaket on the passenger side for awhile. It didn't really bother me until recently. Anyways, I figured it would be rather simple because the Felpros have hooks on the ends.

Instead, The gasket is stuck to the header. Any ideas, I do not want to take the header out again. Thanks

Try scraping it off, just don't get any of the pieces in the head.
