That would depend on what had been dislodged. Remmove the slave cylinder and try wiggling the fork. You should not move the fork too far towards direction of slave cylinder. If the fork becomes free and can be moved forward or backwards, then it is oggd, if not you would have to remove the trans to reinstall.

While wiggling, do not force it to avoid the holding spring clip coming undone.

Remove the dust cover at the clutch fork and see if you can peer into it and check what is wrong with the aid of a pen light.
