Question Trouble shooting clutch noise

Hello All, Thanks for reading my first post!
I have a 91 civic LX 1.5L with 259k miles on her. I replaced the engine at about 190k with a used one. She's a work horse and takes me back and forth 130 miles roundtrip to work daily.
Lately I've noticed a whurring humming sound when I engage the clutch. The gears shift smoothly with no issues and the pedal is firm as usual with no spongy or sticky feel and the tranny shifts smooth as usual. I'm no mechanic, but i'm certain this is coming from the clutch or a clutch component.

Is this what a clutch starts to sound like before it goes out? should I be worried? how could I fix it? how much might it cost?

any help would be greatly appreciated....

Peace!

Yea,a throw out bearing will begin to chatter when it's starting to wear,you may be able to adjust it and the chatter go away,it may last you another 50k .Good luck.
