If your stock throw-out bearing fails, you'd still need to crack open the trans and engine anyways...
Most of these concentric hydraulic bearings come with two lines.
One goes to the clutch master cylinder.
The other is snaked upward and used as a bleeder.
Due to the position of the stock clutch slave cylinder (mating to the clutch fork), I'd probably snake it up that hole.

Second, if the failure of clutch fork and/or pivot ball on FCs really happens frequently enough, it would be a lot easier to just design beefier replacement parts to solve the issue.

It's enough with very heavy pressure plates - i.e. ACT Extreme PP.
I've seen enough failures of them to not recommend using those things.
