That sounds like what I've called  the 'pushrod with two ballbearings' . One ball bearing at either end. I thought that if I pushed this then I would see the clutch plates release, (as that's what the arm works against) but when I press it - very hard- nothing happens.

You will never push hard enough by hand to move the clutch, lots of mechanical advantage in the system to increase leverage

When you say it won't disengage, do you mean when the engine is running - i.e., it stalls when you put it in gear (because the clutch plates are stuck together). If so, (if you havn't already tried) try using the kick start with the clutch lever pulled in - it may then free up
