World War One / S S Manchester

Hi My Grandfather, James Maclean, was in the RAMC., apparently according to family members, although I have never found an Army record or a Pension Record for him. I was told also that he was on S.S. Manchester in WW1 when it went down, but there are a few S.S. Manchester Liners on various websites, and I am not sure which one it might be.
I was told also that he was found floating in the water, and could not remember his name.
He also used another name of "Holden"., for whatever reasons I don't know.
Is there anywhere that might hold the lists of crew members on these ships, as all I have is word of mouth he was in the RAMC., during WW1, and in receipt of a pension.
Thanks in advance for any help.
Faith
