shovelhead primary help needed
so the shovel that I was going to buy was taken apart by the son of the owner to replace the stator, I have most of the parts back together again, but I am not sure about fluid in the case? the clymer manual sucks, I don't see any lines coming into the primary, but the clutch plates were dry? any hints as to where/what/how this is supposed to be set up?

If i remember correctly, there is a fitting on the inner primary, just ahead of the chain tensioner, that fed oil from the motor into the primary, then back to the oil tank. It was quite common to block this off and add oil manually, so contaminants from the primary didn't find their way back into the engine.... this may be why you don't see any lines.

apparently stoney reads good, the bike is a 3 oil line convert, so I am just going to put fluid in up to the bottom of the clutch basket...hell it ain't my bike anyway!

Actually, it's common practice to soak those disks in some Type F tranny fluid before installing. It helps establish an even level of friction on them, rather than waiting for that small amount of primary oil to migrate onto each one.
