Didn't she make him sign up to a non-disclosure clause at one time about their relationship ?

Well spotted, Private Presley !

Yes, she won that case but:

From the IMDb site:
"In 2010, biographer Alanna Nash unearthed a confidential settlement agreement between Grant and Presley that puts
a different light on the outcome of the court case.
On the one hand, it says, Presley can tell the media that she feels "vindicated" by the result of her lawsuit.
On the other, Grant will not have to pay a cent in damages provided he never discusses her again in public.
Furthermore, while Grant will no longer claim to have had sex with Presley, she will no longer accuse him of attempted rape
and will pay him $15,000 for pictures he took when she was a teenager".


It all sounds a tad fishy to me...

Fishy?
You can say that again.
They both took polygraph tests.
One was confirmed as telling the truth, the other failed the test, hence the settlement and Grant not being pursued further.

In one of the Elvis bio's when Elvis found out about it, he beat the crap out of Curry.
Apparently Pris told Elvis he tried to rape her or something like that.
So, Elvis then beat the crap out of Curry? Did this happen?

As per Cilla's version of events, as told in "Child Bride" (I am pretty sure that is where the story is).

In Peter Garulnick’s book Careless Love, it is said that after this alleged incident of Priscilla “telling” Elvis this and that, that Elvis comes back from the army, goes to Hollywood, meets up with Currie while Bonnie is visiting and says to Currie “Doesn’t she look like Priscilla” this incident sounds like he wasn’t informed the alleged incident in Priscilla’s book if he’s being friendly with Currie after discharge. She also recanted many things in her book.

Sometimes when I am having a bit of time that I do not feel like doing anything, I surf the internet looking for old friends, former collegues and other people I knew or I go back to old posts. Or I go to YouTube and watch old TV music shows and clips.
