Yes, you can directly attack any minion, whether or not the target is
tapped. Tapped minions can fight back when attacked though (this isn't
M:tG).

On the Talbot's Chainsaw card, it says that it can be used for a
(D) action to a methuslah's minion. How does that work? Can you
directly attack a minion? does it have to be an untapped minion? There is
similar writing on Bum's Rush, but it says that you get an optional
maneuver. Would the Direct action start a combat, even though it has a
+1 stealth? and would it cause combat with a tapped minion?
(Main reason for this question was I got my butt whipped by a T's
Chainsaw after all my minions went into torpor. The owner said that he
could attack the tapped minions, which led to them not being able to
defend. so several of my vamps ended up in the torpor pile)
thanks in advance

Yes, you can attack any minion. Any other minion may block that action
as normal (with +1 intercept). If not blocked, the target minion
is engaged in combat, whether she was tapped or not. If she wasn't
tapped, leave her untapped.
If she was tapped, you certainly may defend as per normal combat.
Combat says nothing about the tapped state of a minion. You got
whipped because your opponent was cheating.
