re: clutch pedal pressure, SEARCHED!

Hey guys i have an 87 rx7 turbo model. Recently replaced the slave about 3 years ago and the master about a year and a half ago. I have no leak that i can see from the slave anywhere or the master anywhere. No leak from the new flexible hose either. Only place i saw any fluid was from the connection of the metal line from the master cylinder to where it connects to the flex hose. However this was very tight and threaded in quite deep so i dont see how fluid could possibly escape there.
I really cant figure it out and cant imagine it being the slave or master cylinder again? No fluid has leaked from the master cylinder resevoir, maybe a mm of fluid has gone down, but enough that i cant put the car into gear.
Any ideas? Cheers.

The clutch was recently replaced as well as the throw out bearing...
I noticed on the piece behind the slave cylinder, the square with a whole through it, it has a lot of play, it can move back forth, and side to side and seems pretty loose. What would that mean?

Is it possible that there is something wrong with the clutch fork? I cannot see fluid leakage really anywhere at all.

My master cylinder started leaking a while back and it was coming inside the firewall and running down behind the carpet under the pedals. Possibly could be a bent clutch fork, I've heard of that being kind of a weak link.
