Saving me the trouble of reading back through your thread, are you able to answer any of the following:

1) Year of 901 transmission.
2) Model of Porsche the transmission came out of? (911, 912, etc)
3) Serial numbers and stampings on your transmission.
4) Photos of the following:
- Bellhousing, clutch fork and bearing installed.
- Bellhousing, clutch fork and bearing not installed.
- Clutch fork end, and your cable setup.
5) Part number on your clutch fork.

For now, before you pull the engine, reply with everything you're able to answer. Scour your photographs, and crawl under your trans for all the numbers and stampings. Basically, there are a number of different types of "901 transmission". There is the early aluminum case 901, there is the later magnesium cased 901 and then there is the 70-71 911 transmission which was based on the 901 but uses a pull-type clutch assembly. Basically, first step is sorting out which transmission you have. Then, the next is sorting out if that may have to do with your clutch issue.

HTH, or at least...hope it will!
