What clutch? Does it make any noise while in neutral with the car running?

That isn't a throwout bearing it is more of a squeak/whine - unless your throwout bearing was whining for a long time and it has come apart. Doesn't seem like that applies here.

Sounds more like something is hitting the fingers on the pressure plate or something is just loose in there overall and bouncing around. I'd pull the clutch cable cover and see if anything stands out. If not you're probably looking at pulling the transmission.

Its typically not a great idea to ignore rattling sounds in the drive line.
