This is a bad news. This is similar to the tail light condensation. They originally were just replacing the tail light over and over. Then they found that the root cause is the body panel. They started to flatten out the body panel when replacing the tail light and the leaking stopped. This noise is caused by throw-out bearing, clutch fork, pressure plate, slave cylinder, or whatever is damaged buy "something" (root cause) no one knows. Replacing the damaged parts stops the noise, for now, but that "something" damages them again and the noise will come back.

mokinbird87, maybe they would cover yours under power train warranty. You should have power train warranty until 5 years or 60k miles whichever comes first. Might be worth the try.
