My unprofessional opinion is that a bearing in the transmission failed.

I was thinking clutch since it stops with the clutch in, but the only in second thing suggests trans.

I was thinking when the clutch is depressed that the transmission is disengaged. Thus the bearing would be silent.

I am not the one to determine this though so let's see if Jeff in PA or Jake chime in.
