Misunderstood your question the first time through.

The Lubrication chapter of the Owner's Manual reprint I have gives item number 37 as "Clutch release bearing" and says there is a "clutch release bearing fitting."

This is clearly distinct from item number 21, "Clutch release bearing retainer."

The diagram in the Lubrication Guide clearly points to the release bearing (I've always used the term "throw-out bearing"), but there's no fitting visible on mine.

I don't know the answer to this. Apparently I've been missing something all these years. I just kind of "blipped" over this passage in the owner's manual, thinking I had it covered by hitting the zerk on the retainer.

If I had to guess, I'd guess the original throw-out bearing had a lubrication fitting, but my after-market bearing does not. Probably the after-market bearing instead has teflon or other "life-time" lubrication that will, of course, give out long before the clutch itself.

But this is just a GUESS. Anyone KNOW?
