I think "throw out bearing"... but I am no clutch expert...

A recent thread about a chattering maybe oiled up clutch?....Mine did THAT when the output (or is it input) shaft oil seal became leaky because I didn't install a pilot bearing on my newer block when I changed.... It was pretty easy to fix but I did have to drop the transmission to get to it.
