<p>Careful, G is a secp256k1 elliptic curve generator point. You cannot multiply it as you would a scalar. You need a secp256k1 library to perform scalar x EC-Point operations.</p>

I suggest you try a command line tool, such as Libbitcoin-BX for EC-point operations in command line: https://github.com/libbitcoin/libbitcoin-explorer/wiki/bx-ec-to-public

thanks james, I'd like to do without library if possible

that library is very powerful, with `bx ec-to-public 5B56C417303FAA3FCBA7E57400E120A0CA83EC5A4FC9FFBA757FBE63FBD77A89` I can find Public Key compressed, But i'd like to use even `A1A3BE4C67196F57C39A88B76373733891BFABA16ED27A813CEED498804C0570` and understand how it works

Have a look at the operations necessary for scalar x EC point operation, it's pretty complex with just basic CL tools: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Elliptic_curve
