Nope nothing to worry about. The pulley is made to the water pump. It wont fall off.

Re: fan clutch question...

With a big wrench, counter clockwise. Or my method, an air chisel, just hit the edge to turn it a bit and it will loosen and spin right off by hand.

Counter clock meaning left hand thread?

Re: fan clutch question...

Its not backwards, its standard thread, which I would call right hand thread. Turn to the left to unscrew.
