I'm going to say the TO Bearing is self aligning. The inner race has about 1/16 inch, maybe a bit more, lateral play which seems to make no difference in spinning effort or smoothness.
When I pulled out the TO Bearing and I quickly discovered that it would not be a good idea to get carried away with a grease gun lubing these things. When I pulled it out it was well coated/gunked up with grease that had worked it's way out of the race. Fortunately it seems to be a pretty stiff, high temp grease so although it go flung around inside the bellhousing a little, it just stuck and didn't run anywhere. Wiped it down, gave it a very, very light shot of fresh grease and put it back in. Adjusted the clutch where I can push on the fork to bottom the slave and get a slight bit of play at the TO Bearing.
Unfortunately too hot to finish putting the interior back in today.
