It's common to see clutch disks grabbing on the outsides, because as they wear out and start slipping the heat warps the friction material away from the disk near the outside.
They also get hot from abuse, in which case the clutch disk gets too fat for the pressure plate to release completely and you have a really hard time getting it in gear because the transmission keeps going. (Not related to you, just saying that's another way it happens)

Hi while i have motor out i was wondering if somebody out there could walk me thru how the gears work, that is when i put it in reverse should shaft turn 1 way and not they other, if reverser is in reverse shoud shaft turn if not what should i look at before i put motor together.I dont want to haft to pull this out again, thanks john
The engine only turns one way so it doesn't matter that the shaft can turn both ways.
In forward position, there are 4 or 5 gears that will make the machine move forward when you rotate the input shaft clockwise (direction of engine rotation). There is also one gear that makes the machine move backwards.
In reverse position, the 4 or 5 gears will make the machine move backwards, while the reverse gear is reversed and actually makes it move forward.

You don't see the throwout bearing touching the clutch, that happens after it's together and you adjust the throwout bearing separately.
The clutch fingers are the 3 (I think) levers in the middle of the clutch (attached to engine) that the throwout bearing (in the center housing) presses on.
The gauge is to set the height of the fingers relative to the flywheel, not the throwout bearing.
