Bottom Bracket Help

Wanted to service my bb and ran into a problem? Notice how the Part tool insert goes up tight against the raised portion of the crank arm. All the treads of the insert are inside, but apparently it would go in a bit further if not for the rib on the crank arm. The “off” side has about ¼ gap between the crank and the raised portion of the insert. Am I ok to go full torque to get the arm off. It’s a high mileage bike so I will need a good bit of torque to get it off. Thanks for any info.
