The question cannot be answered, because we don`t know what model bike it is...

The question was not where the clutch is...

The question was where does the clutch get its oil from.

Until you know if it is a Big Twin or a Sportster, you cannot answer the question, you can only guess.

The sportster clutch shares lube with the transmission.

The big twin clutch has its own lube.
