Default Gearbox/ Clutch Noise

Has anyone had a slight grinding noise in gearbox? louder if i move the gearstick around. Does it under load, no load, foot on clutch, off clutch. Seems to perform ok, but it is getting louder and louder. It sounds like if you put a peice of paper in the blades of a fan. The motor has 15k on it and clutch 20k, any ideas would be greatly appreciated.

sounds like the flywheel may be slightly touching the clutch plate
can it be adjusted?
or do a few limiter launches it may go away
