Clutch replacement invoice - does it show IMS/RMS done?

I would have thought the same. Is there a mileage point where there is some level of agreement that failure is unlikely?

I'm not an expert; very new to these cars as well. However I read all over the internet that 60k miles is the magic number.
Point of fact: there are many anecdotal instances of people who changed their IMS as a precautionary measure, only to have the replacement fail shortly thereafter.

If you ask me, based on what passes for research at my house, I'd say you're safer with an unfailed original IMS at 112k miles, than you are with a recently - replaced IMS (depending on which replacement is installed, of course).

I'm in a similar position myself, with a few extra miles. I've decided that even when I do the clutch this winter, I'll probably leave the IMS well - enough alone.

Nothing last forever, and they are using Mobil 1 oil.

Not really, there is always some element of risk, more so with some bearing designs or usage.

here is a receipt of mine and this does not include labor yet. You will see the details of the LNE IMS.
