I've been having the same issue, I'm pretty sure it's the input bearing, as stated.
I just don't feel like dropping the trans yet, as I plan on doing a lot of work while it is (IMSB, RMS, clutch).
There's probably some other component (internal to the transmission) that would be good to replace while I'm in there, but I haven't done enough research.

Clutch-out-in-neutral noise is pretty indicative of input bearing noise, though.
