I was changing out a clutch in a 1995 nissan pickup and when I took off the release bearing it was tie-wired to the lever. This cant be right is it?

I kinda figured it wasnt suppose to be.I had borrowed a 2-jaw puller to get the old one off but when I compared the new one to it. They looked the same. What is it suppose to be pressed onto? Is there a site I can go to to look at the diagram?
