Ho There, i would get it sorted asap, and stick a clutch in it whilst your doing it, ( what are the symptoms) noisy on tickover goes away when you depress the clutch.

when ticking over normally does it make any noise or is it only on turning engine off, and depression when in reverse. normally when a release bearing starts being noisy they go quite when clutch Depressed. So possibly sumat loose on the plate, mountings,
