My mechanic has just called (he’s just removed the gearbox) to trace the issues I have had with the gear change.
Hydraulics are okay (clutch master and slave were changed only three years ago)
Issue is that I need:-
1) New clutch
2) Clutch fork
3) 6x Set screws(allen keys type) to hold the clutch to the flywheel
He has left the workshop and not counted the number of splines on the clutch. I know the clutch in there isn't a standard Renault clutch. I think it is a turbo clutch. I'm confused that the vendors sites mentioned 12 and 21 spline clutches. Why would the clutch/splines vary?
Is it possible to go back to a stock clutch assuming I can go back to a stock clutch after having a Renault Turbo clutch (I don't believe any modifications had been made to make it fit)?
Looking at the following:-

Suspect that what I need is:-
1) My mechanic hasn’t counted the splines but the replacement clutch needs the same number of splines as the one it replaces. If so how come the vendors offer 12 and 21 spline clutches? I thought the gearboxes were the same throughout?
2) 109614 or 103134 (what’s the difference between these part numbers for the clutch release fork?)
3) 102064 (SCREW M9) 7x
Do the 12 or 21 splines on the input shaft vary i.e. how come there is more than one type of input shaft out there?
Any advice/guidance would be greatly appreciated as I’m just over a week away before the car is due for a wedding booking.
