AFAIK, there are not usually links in the *Help* buffer for a function or
variable to the relevant portions of the manual. Instead, the links there take
you to the source-code definitions.
There is, however, `C-h F', at least; it takes you to the manual section for an
Emacs command (but not for a non-interactive function).
I also proposed that the link on a function etc. name in an *Apropos* buffer
take you to the relevant manual page - the link on its `Function' etc. field
would still take you to the doc string (*Help*). This was accepted, though that
doesn't necessarily mean it will be implemented.
