Either a split clutch to slave pipe or a knackered clutch slave cylinder by the sound of it mate....

No its not hard mate, the clutch slave is held onto the lefthand side of the gearbox by 2 13mm nuts.
Jack up the car and have a friend press the clutch pedal so you can inspect the slave and pipe for any leaks then report back
