tko 600 slipping

That's progress. If you can angle your phone's camera in to get a pic or two, that would help. Brake/clutch fluid is usually amber. In the old days you could get blue, not anymore. Transmission fluid can be red. Grease can also be red. Peeking through a tiny hole to try and figure out why your clutch is slipping is a tough way to diagnose the problem. Pulling the transmission on a Cobra is not the end of the world; it's really an afternoon's work. Unless somebody comes up with a brilliant observation, that's probably what you're looking at.

I did take some pics...lol but as I said it just isnt enough to show, I can only feel it on my fingers that it is greasy, not wet but greasy...so I am kinda figuring I have a leak or the slave cylinder has too many shims, ever so slightly still pressing on spring...think I am going to grab an inspection camera tomorrow and get a good view..lol
no the actual pressure plate is painted red-ish...and hell naw this thing is still under warranty, I just bought it Jan 7 2022

You've found the problem, but not necessarily the root cause. Were the clutch disc, pressure and flywheel properly cleaned before installation? Do you have a leaking main seal or HTOB? is your clutch fluid level going down or staying full?

The transmission will obviously have to come out for a proper diagnosis and repair.
