[B]If you hear chirping while idling in neutral and the noise goes away when the pedal is slowly depressed, the fork/pivot ball contact point is making the noise.[/B]

If you are experiencing noise with the clutch pedal OUT then it cannot be the throwout bearing.... the throw out bearing is only in play when the clutch pedal is depressed. When it isn't depressed you have the tranny output shaft, pilot bearing and various tranny parts in play. No matter what you do you are going to need to pull the tranny, clutch, etc... at that point you can inspect for wear and decide what you feel comfortable not replacing.

everything is dropped....i have very little if no play on my inputshaft. turns easily by hand smooth no noise.no scaring or markin on the splines either..release bearing appears to be ok.. pressure plate decent no broken fingers..wut i found online it said it could fork/pivot ball contact point...

Maybe the pedal pivot & spring inside the firewall?
