Clutch or something BROKE!!!

The thing that is loose is the slave cylinder. It has to be bolted down to work. You step on the clutch pedal, fluid is pushed to the slave cylinder forcing the rod out. The rod pushes the throw-out arm, disengaging the clutch.
So, get some replacement metric bolts. You should probably check inside the boot to make sure the piston inside the slave cylinder is still inside the slave cylinder. No stepping on the clutch pedal until this is reassembled. Also, in one picture it looks like the end of the throw-out arm is broken. Hopefully, this is an optical illusion but if not you need to replace the arm.

The arm looks fine. It looks to me as well as many others like the push rod that comes out of the slave cylinder is bent.( the slave cylinder is the piece that is held on with the two bolts)

So is the rod suppose to be going straight into that black metal piece? Or does it bend alittle when it sits into that black metal piece. This is what i meant. Click the picture one time to zoom in if you cant read what it says. Thanks
