Arrows may be able to pierce clone armor depending on how they were made. Swords would also be able to kill clones but Gondorians would need to change their style of fighting as in they are used to fighting lightly armored opponents such as orcs and Haradrim. If an army of Gondorians and clones of equal sizes were to meet on the field of battle, the clones would probably win due to superior armor and training but they would probably lose the majority of their forces. Orcs and Haradrim are not always lightly armored the Uruks of Mordor which were the orcs mainly used to attack gondor were probably relatively heavily armored. It is the Smaller orcs that are lightly armored and then they at the very least wear a suit of heavy chainmail armor and a helmet.

What I meant to say was poor quality armor as the stuff that orcs wear is crudly fashioned and barely passable as armor (though the easterlings have armor that is equaltoif not superior ton Gondorian armor). Anyway, they wouldn't know the weak points of the armor unless the had an elf (which they don't) or experience from previous battles.
