I believe you get the whole shebang from the same repository.  The
.desktop files that are installed contain the following line:

Exec=xfce4-clipman

... and according to Portage, the xfce-extra/xfce4-clipman-plugin
package is the owner of the following (relevant to your interests,
there are others not listed) files:

/usr/bin/xfce4-clipman
/usr/bin/xfce4-clipman-history
/usr/bin/xfce4-clipman-settings
/usr/bin/xfce4-popup-clipman
/usr/lib64/xfce4/panel/plugins/libclipman.so

... and of the list above, only the last file is specific to the panel
plugin, so building the source from the gitlab repository[1] should
give you what you're looking for.  Maybe you could build this from
source and just replace the xfce4-clipman binary program on your
system?
