The bearing carrier that Mac's and Dennis Carpenter list is 48-7561, which was the standard carrier used in most cars and trucks and does not have the threaded boss to accept the grease lube line featured on the 09B carrier (as pictured in the Lynx parts diagram). This grease line (from a grease cup mounted on the exterior of the bellhousing) doesn't lubricate the clutch release bearing itself, it lubricates the carrier itself sliding on the gearbox bearing retainer.

Mac's and Carpenter's item is also a new repro, while Hagen's part is NOS Ford.
