on my 455...

I had the same problem on my 455. It was very tough even with the engine on a stand. Basically you needed to be able to twist it back and forth and spray lube in the cracks where the distributor mates to the manifold. I used the proper wrench to get leverage. Once that was free I started to twist and lift at the same time working it up and down 1/4" at a time until the lube had a chance to do its magic. Force it and you'll probably break it, patience is key. Took me about 35mins to get mine out. I cleaned it up and painted it and its as good as new.
