If the piston is pushing against the outer seal of the housing, then it is not traveling at the correct angle to the clutch arm.

Any wear on the tube for the release bearing will change the how the arm and piston move together, and if enough wear has occured (like from being used with a cracked/failed arm) then it could absolutely cause your issue.

Ufortunately, if you replaced the clutch arm before, you know what it takes to replace the release bearing guide tube.
