I don't want to break any wires or clips so I annoyed the pic and added arrows to the clips I am concerned with. Where should I press and which direction I should pull?

Got it. The round end is just a cap to cover the wires. Just pull or pry with a screw driver. It will pop off. I think I have a better sense for how unfamiliar connectors come apart as well as what might be an end cover for wires (like an elbow cap).
Anyway i got bank one out.

Well, here I go.
2014 ----------
It was 2014 that I did my first two actuators.
One was purchased full price (rebuild with new brass gears still failed)
The other was rebuilt with brass gears.
2016 --------
Actuator with bras gears failed.
Fixed it with the other brass gear set from my purchase in 2014.
2017 -------
Throttle actuator failure
Checkin now to see which one failed (new or brass rebuild).
Stay tuned.
Ok. The failed actuator is the rebuilt one. The metal rod spins inside the gear! I am not sure if this gear was part of the set of gears I purchased.
In the attached picture, the rental rod the goes into the gear at the right of the diagram, spins .
