most likly

I would have to make an educated guess that it would be from the slave cylinder or you could just remove the slave cylinder from the transmission so that you wouldn't have to bleed it when you put it back together.

I changed the clutch, slave cylinder, and clutch master cylinder on my 95 F150 a few years ago. Not to hard. Theres a tool for removing the hydraulic line from the slave cylinder. I made my own out of washer. When you get under the truck and find the line going into the transmission you will see a white plastic collar around the line. That has to be pushed all the way in, to release the quick disconnect. Just don't break or beat it up. I remember seeing the tool at the local parts store. It looks like a 2 prong fork. It just slides over the line so you can push the collar in. Good luck write back if you need more help.

I replaced both the throw out bearing and slave cylinder as one unit. The reason I was replacing everything was because my slave cylinder was leaking. Im not sure how many miles you have on yours but mine started leaking at 110k miles. Might be cheap insurance to do everything at once while your in there. Thats what I did, while I had the slave cylinder out, I replaced the clutch and had the flywheel resurfaced.
