Default de-oiling clutch disk

My rear main seal went, and now theres oil in my clutch. Anybody have tips on getting the oil off the disk? or is it shot? The irony, there is 30 miles on this stage 1 exedy clutch.

Is that really slipping like a ****?

I just got my car and I wonder if it's the rear main (since the entire underbody is well oiled!) or the clutch because mine slips really badly!

Brake cleaner will get it off. Just make sure you wipe it off an repeat.
