If you get under the steering wheel and follow the clutch pedal up, you'll see it.

Dislocate your spin in 3 places so you can lay on your back, turn your hand inside out and grow another thumb and you will get it.

i got it sorted.

fairly certain i cross threaded the hardline bolt on the slave cylinder.

its not leaking at least.

i will cross that bridge in 10 years when i need to replace it again.
