This bell housing has no inspection cover like earlier or non-dauntless models. I assume the bell housing is a General Motors flavor. However, after I removed a smaller floor panel (more on the firewall) that went over the top of the housing, I got a little better view using an angled mirror. It became clear what happened!
The shift fork has a retainer on it to keep it positioned on the pivot. The fork had slid out of the retainer and was not pivoting on the fulcrum ball. It was easy to push back into place and I now have the clutch working correctly.

I forgot to mention this a few posts back and you might find it funny. The t-case insulator is from an import. I had to go and buy M10-1.5 nuts to get it attached.
