I WOULD spend a little time making 100% sure that it wasn't a belt. For example, you DIDN'T mention if clutching in/out or going in reverse changed the noise....or if you marked the belts with chalk lines against the pulleys to make sure they didn't slip, or, tried turning on AC, lights, radio, fan to high, etc...to see if a belt slipped when the alternator hit a heavy load all at once, etc. And, sure, if you're in there, take care of the pilot, the throw out, the clutch, etc...but, typically you don't need to machine the flywheel too, unless things got really buggered, in which case, you'd look at the starter cog too.

Its a pretty straight forward procedure, about like any other clutch work you've probably done, but does require you get all the stuff in the way off first...
I think I mentioned looking at the starter cog while your at it, and doing the pilot as long as you're doing the TO bearing, etc.

I know this is a pretty old post but my X has started doing exactly what you describe. Worst in 1st and 2nd gear. Sounds like birds. My X only has about 60k miles or less but has been through some pretty rough times over the years and terrain across the U.S. I am not familiar at all about clutch work or harmonic balancer work at all. What are some things to do to prove one thing or another, as I would hate to dig into one thing only to find out it was the other? How long can you drive like this before failure? Mine has only been doing this for about 2-3 weeks (that I have noticed) but does seem to be getting worse.
