Which of these variants is clear and unambiguous? (bla-bla) is some very long phrase like "as everybody knows".

1I would go with "is also brave" most of the time. – mstorkson Jan 30 '17 at 14:09

All three work, although this page suggests that "also" should come after the "to be" verb. So:
[Y] is also brave.
However, this feels to me like one of grammar rules that is "more honored in the breach than in the observance", meaning that it's frequently broken. I don't think it matters much, but you should be consistent in your own writing.
In addition, the placement of "also" can change the nuance of the sentence.
