How could air have gotten into the system to begin with? I only took off the bolts holding the slave on which I thought didn't introduce and air into the system, right?
What could have gone wrong in the bell housing?

Bleed kit isn't necessary. I use the same technique. As long as the piston didn't fall out of the slave, you are correct. No air.
If the fork freely retracts as you've proven by the bleed technique and the clutch "mostly" disengages, try adding some more throw to the pedal.
Did you ever lower the pedal from stock? Something smells fishy.
