i've never had this issue, as i remove my drums every time i remove my rear wheels (simply to keep the corrosion factor to a minimum) however there is a small slot between the drum and the backing plate. you should be able to stick the corner of a block of wood (or a brass/copper punch) in this groove and go to town.

I apologize that i have not yet posted the bolt spec for pushing the drum off of the hub. my guess is that it's a standard metric bolt (coarse thread) that has a 10mm thread. 8MM possibly? i'll definitely let you guys know my findings, i'll be doing new rear brake shoes soon.
