Default clutch problem, bad clutch slave cylinder ?

my case is different from what i've been reading about tho.

its a ls1 / t56 swapped car using a wilwood 7/8 master

the master reservior used to lose a little fluid over time, I see its a little wet on the side where the master cylinder and the reservoir connects, also at the bottom of the bell housing.

Now I cant even pump the clutch anymore, I'll push the clutch in and it'll just bottom out and stay there. I can pop it out and pump it again, but if I do that I'll just be losing fluid and the clutch is still stuck on the bottom, cant get into gear and what not.

all the fluid are coming out from the bottom of the bellhousing btw.

so my guess is the clutch slave cylinder is bad ? what i've been reading is people cant get the car OUT of gear

I did some bleeding already back when the clutch started to act up

So when you put fluid in the resevoir does it hold the fluid or does it slowly run though and all leak out the bell housing? Kind of hard to tell by your post if you are leaking from the master resevoir down the line and into the bell housing or if your slave is possibly slightly cracked and leaking slowly.
