Is it correct?

-If there is anything he is not clear about (explanation 1) the presentation, please tell him to feel free to contact me.

Explanation 1: the object of ABOUT is ANYTHING; it seems something is missing to link up PRESENTATION. Is my sentence wrong?

@WBYeats,
Boy WB, that's a knotty one. It might make more sense with "in the presentation." However I 'd write

In the (or "my") presentation if there is anything he is not clear about, please tell him to feel free to contact me

@WBYeats,
You need a word like 'in' or 'concerning' or a phrase like 'relating to' to join 'clear about' and 'the presentation'.

If there is anything he is not clear about in/concerning/relating to the presentation, please tell him to feel free to contact me.

If you rearrange the sentence it may be clearer:

If there is anything in/concerning/relating to the presentation [that] he is not clear about, please tell him to feel free to contact me.
