it's the input shaft bearing mate.

think about it. when your foot is on the clutch, the input shaft is no longer turning, so the noise stops.

if it's clutch release bearing, it would be the other way around. think about it.

when you have your foot on the clutch, the release bearing is turning. when you don't have the clutch pedal down, the release bearing is not turning, so can't make noise.
