I've searched and without a noise to identify the exact issue, my guess is that it's a pilot bushing based on what i've read from these threads:

The car was sitting since May and I just bought it off someone this Sunday. The noise started this morning when i turned it on after I drove about 500 miles home with the car overnight.

Anyway, here's the sound:

not my video btw

So is it TOB (throwout bearing) or pilot bushing?
