Engine making whining noises....

This been going on for a long period of time now. At first, it wasn't really noticeable because it only make noises once in a while. Lately I noticed the whining noises a lot more. The whining noises only occured during idle (mostly when my engine is warming up). When I rev OR press on the clutch, the noises stop. But right after I stop reving or let go of the clutch, the noise is back again. The noises sound like it's coming from under the car near by the front wheels. I can't really describe this noise. The noise sound kind of like when you are pedaling your bike backward. Kind of like "eeeeeeeeeeehhhhhhhhhhhhh.........."

It's really starting to bug me. Can anyone tell what might be the problem?

Its most likely driveline related, so you will need to take it into a shop if you can't diagnose it yourself.
