Default Help me if you can!

Hey guys,

I'm getting this weird noise coming from my car when I take off or go in reverse from a stop. The best way I can describe it is like a " metallic whistle" noise. It's brief, and stops after 1500rpms. It's more pronounced when the car isnt' warmed up as well.

Any ideas on what it could possibly be?

I'm experiencing a metallic whirring noise as well, noticeable in all gears, but much louder in second gear. Am I experiencing the same thing?

If I get my clutch and flywheel replaced along with throw out bearing, will the pilot bushing need to be replaced as well?
