Clutch weird noises (again)

ugh all these drivetrain problems have been plaguing me...



anyways. lately, i've got clutch squeaking issues again, this time it can be heard louder outside of the car than inside of the car. it's pretty loud and it only squeaks when i'm pressing down on the clutch, not when im releasing it. i can also feel a little vibration when i press it down while it's making the squeaking noise. the first day i found this out, i parked my car and after 30 min i needed to go drive again and it was gone; it's been like this for a couple days now but for the whole day today, it's been squeaking like this....so in other words i have no idea what's going on


i also know that my clutch spring on the bracket inside of the car is also squeaking so this poses an interesting situation .... hmmm
i inspected the 2 spot welds and they look perfectly intact
this is a quieter, higher pitched squeak and i think i just need to find the right lube for the spring


any ideas appreciated!
