Yes they do and they are both pull designs. The slave pushes towards the engine but it has a pivot inside the bellhousing. So the throw out bearing pulls away from the engine.

Don't think twice about it. You don't look like an idiot at all. Asking questions is the only way that you will ever find the answers. Have a great weekend!

Pull clutches are used a lot on various applications. They require less space and are easier on the thrust bearing.
