In my posting, I failed to mention things that, to me, were just plain obvious.
And those obvious things were:
1) Proper embouchure
2) Proper air support
3) A clarinet body is optimal condition (i.e., no leaks)
4) A mouthpiece, reed, and ligature combination that is set up to produce optimal tone production
Again, I really didn't think I had to even mention these things. I see now that I erred.
Actually, from the link that I provided above, I found a second confirmation on the greater percentage importance of the mouthpiece. From my provided link is the statement:
"Playing with the same excellent mouthpiece on two different clarinets, one that is simple, made of plastic, and one that is extremely expensive, you will most often find the difference in the sound is in general less significant than using the same instrument with two significantly different mouthpieces. Many players will doubt this - especially when you have payed lots for your instrument."
So, again, I believe I have my answer.
Actually, I was really looking for the the percentage that the clarinet body had upon the tone. So, IMO, I posted my question incorrectly.
However, from the article quote written above, I believe that I do indeed have my answer.
As to Tony's linked articles, I found them way too technical for me. And, from what I did understand, I could not find anything that related to my original posting.
