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.

 Dan, 
Seeing your toploader I'm thinking it's a waste to cover it up with a tunnel!  It's a thing of beauty.  Plus think how fast you'll feel you're going when you can see the road moving under your feet, and the rocks hitting you in the leg!
