Think it's time to replace this? :D I knew the clutch release point was closer to the floor that I liked, but I didn't expect the push rod to look quite this bad! Also, check out what the PO used instead of a proper clevis pin.

A fairly common issue. We've replaced dozens of those pins for the same problem. I keep one clevis pin on the Wall of Shame, so worn it looks like a miniature crankshaft. The rod it was holding in place looked like yours and the same with the pedal. Had to weld and re-drill the hole in that.
 
I knew this one wasn't going to be pretty so I already had a new push rod and clevis pin on hand...
