Hey guys this is probably the noobest question evar, but when it comes down to it I don't know shit about cars lol.

Anyway I messed up my S13 a few years back and I've been fixing it in the garage when I have time probably once a month for 2 years and lately every week or so.
I finally got everything up and running, and when I took it for a test drive, the clutch was making a weird noise when I depress it. When I put my foot on the clutch and depress it to change gears, it makes a sort of squeaking sound. It's consistent and does it every time it goes down.

It HAS been sitting for 2 years + so is it possibly rusty or something? I am somewhat scared of it malfunctioning or snapping or whatever while I'm driving it. Is it a serious problem? I kind of want to fix it even if it's not, so is there anything I could do to fix the sound? I am hoping WD40 somewhere lol but idk I'm in the dark and I'll replace it if necessary.
Thx for the help (Man I feel like a noob)
