This should have all that information:
# ls -l /etc/init.d/*clam*
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 9563 Oct 10  2018 /etc/init.d/clamav-daemon
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 7692 Oct 10  2018 /etc/init.d/clamav-freshclam
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 9348 Feb 21  2021 /etc/init.d/clamav-milter

This is from Ubuntu 22.10, but the permissions and owners should be the 
same.

There is no /etc/init.d/clamav-update on my Ubuntu 22.10
but I have put a copy of
 	/etc/cron.daily/freshclam
at
 	https://www.aitchison.me.uk/clamav/freshclam

However, Ubuntu runs freshclam as a service, eg
 	systemctl is-enabled clamav-freshclam.service
 	sudo systemctl restart clamav-freshclam.service
and
 	sudo service clamav-freshclam status | cat
 	sudo service clamav-freshclam start | cat
so I have put a copy of
 	/lib/systemd/system/clamav-freshclam.service
at
 	https://www.aitchison.me.uk/clamav/clamav-freshclam.service

Yes, but Ubuntu 22.10 has 0.103.7 which is supported by ClamAV.
22.10.1 has 0.103.6. Unfortunately there are reasons to upgrade
from 0.103.6 to 0.103.7
https://blog.clamav.net/2022/07/clamav-01037-01041-and-01051-patch.html

ClamAV build Ubuntu packages which are available at
    https://www.clamav.net/downloads
- though the 0.103.7 Linux packages seem to be hiding (Micah ?).
I do not know of a PPA for these.
