Any way to lube the throw out bearing?

I think I may have done a bone head. I pulled the engine and transmission from a '89 Dodge for my Cummins conversion. The transmission and clutch looked brand new so I didn't change anything while I had it out. Saturday I got the truck running and drove it for the first time. Today I was cruising around and the throw out bearing squealed a few times. I guess I should have changed it out while it was sitting on the shop floor. Is there any way to get a few drops of oil into it with out pulling the transmission?

Oil maybe but I doubt that'd solve your prob for long. They require a good dose of Grease and I know my new one didn't have a zerk fitting on it...
