Sounds like a thrust bearing. Try lifting the clutch pedal if the noise goes away or gets better then yes it is your thrust bearing

Just get it all done, no point in just getting the bearing likelyness is the clutch plates will be pretty worn too. If your handy enough with tools you could easily change a clutch. I did mine on my 1.6 16v Corsa only problem i had was trying to get the box past the anti roll bars. But managed to angle it so i would. The only hard part is taking the box off and aligning the clutch(i didnt get the aligment tool with my clutch kit)
