Thanks to Wilhelm, Howard, and Tom of the ClassicGlory Yahoo group... for the insight into my missing clutch pushrod. I have enough information now to fabricate a proper replacement. It should be super-cheap to do. I have some roller shafts I took out of some old laser printers. Its hard-hard stuff.... but should be machinable in the lathe.
I was going to use eMachineshop to make one, but the cost was a little more than I could bear for a one-off.
Added....
Here's my makeshift clutch alignment tool. Craftsman 5/8" deepwell 3/8" drive socket with a bolt thru the middle. The washers bend and self-center as the bold and nut are tightened.
