Clutch problems need help

Changed clutch about 6 months ago now my clutch won't disengage. Slowly started to lose fluid kept refilling but could never find leak. Looks like fluid on the bottom of bell housing . Is it my slave cylinder or TOB

Basically your tob is made into your slave cylinder. I'd check the seal on your clutch pipe before you pull the trans.

Also the seals on your master cylinder output fitting. But its most likely your slave.

I changed TOB when I did clutch what's the chances of it going out this fast? Would the pipe leaking cause it not to disengage, wherever it is it's a slow leak, I bleed lines to get air out but still won't disengage and the petal is stiff like new

Yeah, if it was a seal it could still be a slow leak. And yes, if you have debris in the lines or air in them you can blow out your seal in your tob.

If I blew out seal in TOB it wouldn't hold pressure and I'd lose all fluid right?

It will slowly leak out, could take a few weeks, also you will get oil on the clutch disc, so that will be garbage too.
