My buddy picked up an '87 Softail that had sat for 7+ years in a parking garage. Was given the classic "Have over $9000 worth of new parts" all "by a Clubber" line but they can't find the receipts... Got it for a good enough price so it really doesn't matter. Does have upgraded carb/fuel line/petcock and over 160PSI in both holes so I know there's been some work done, including the clutch.
Question is can anyone identify this clutch? Wondering what to expect once I get into it. It's leaking between the engine and back of primary so it does have to come off.

That is an OEM clutch assembly.
You will need a puller to remove the clutch, it is on a tapered shaft.
