the clutch and pressure plate [diaphram] are dated 1989 & 1990

Here are pics of : Gold colored axle flange.. seal is behind it...
here it hasn't been knocked in and a circlip attached to the shaft
to keep the flange on, and then a rubber cap is pressed in to stop
any oil leaking out...

The surface behind the clutch plate..
the two bottom studs [threads] have small o rings to stop oil
leaking past the nuts... naturally these need to be replaced.

there is a small needle roller bearing in the center which needs a small amount of lithium based Moly grease.
