One thing I'd like to chip in on identifying the location of the noise - apart from the obvious listening of the squeak, you should be able to confirm the source of the squeak as the component would vibrate when the squeak occurs. The more you feel, you're likely closer to it. Helped me solve other issues too this way.
I used a mechanics stethoscope, and the noise in the footwell parts was much louder than the noise from the clutch fork area.

I ended up removing the slave cylinder and lubricating the clutch fork pivot anyway (since we're all stuck inside). This helped remove some creakiness at the last centimeter of travel when the clutch was depressed.

My clutch feels amazing now. This has been bothering me for months. I thought about it every time I drove the car.

Thanks for your help everyone
