The release bearing, also known as the clutch release bearing, is a critical component in a vehicle's manual transmission system. It allows the clutch to disengage from the engine when the driver presses the clutch pedal, enabling smooth gear shifts. Positioned between the pressure plate and the clutch fork, it facilitates the movement of the clutch assembly, reducing friction and wear during operation. Proper functioning of the release bearing is essential for effective clutch performance and overall vehicle drivability.

You need to pull the halfshafts, to get to the trans axle. Then pull the transaxle out from under the car and the release bearing is on the transaxle shaft, you'll need to get a bearing puller to get the bearing loose from it's housing.

Both are the same term for the same part.
Why is there operating clearance between the clutch release bearing and spring diaphragm?
If there were no operating clearance the clutch release bearing would constantly be in contact with the spring diaphragm causing wear on both the diaphragm and the bearing itself, also the bearing pushing on the diaphragm could cause the clutch friction plate to not be fully engaged and slip.
Is it true release bearing acts upon release levers?
i assume you mean the clutch yes
Do release bearing acts directly upon a diaphragm spring?
Yes. (The technical terms for the parts are the throwout bearing and pressure plate)
How do you remove the trans-axle to change the clutch. release bearing will not release from clutch diaphragm fingers?
you have to remove the clutch arm from the top of the trans because there is a stop on the arm stopping the shaft from spinning to release fork inside from bearing.

Why is it important to have an operating clearance between the clutch release bearing and spring diaphragm?
in order to prevent continuous rotation of the release bearing. This prevents premature wear of the bearing. To ensure that the full spring pressure and clamping force is applied at the clutch contact faces. This prevents clutch slip.
