I have used a chain wrench for leverage in a car before, but I am not thrilled with how it can gouge the pulley a little bit, though thats probably avoidable by wrapping it with something else first.
My issue is the bolt, not pulley sliding off Crankshaft. My engine is in, otherwise, we would not be having this discussion.

I would use chain wrench, if I was certain the pulley bolt was going to come off. Didn't want to risk damaging it.
