Driver side of the firewall next to the brake MC/booster.

Look inside of the car where the linkage connects to the MC from the clutch pedal for the leak I assume you're wanting to look for.

Rather than just going and buying one, have you first checked if the slave cylinder is inactive? Does it operate and have full extension? Or is it frozen/locked up and/or leaking? Don't go buying things you don't need.
