I would not change any clutch components until you at least
make sure you have fluid in the clutch master cylinder.

If there is, but there is a leak where your red circle is, that's the slave
cylinder, and that would cause your clutch to no engage.

I always start with the cheapest easiest things to troubleshoot, then
work your way up.

Is there fluid, is there a leak, where is the leak?

I opened the resivoir and it didn't have much fluid at all. I am going to get a mighty vac or a bleeder and see if it just needs fluid.

It was damp around the slave cylinder when I added fluid, but I could not see where it was coming out.

I also loosened the bleed valve to see if I could get anything to happen, so that leaking could have been from that, or just from the slave itself, will try and troubleshoot better once I get a bleeder to help.
