Sounds like the clutch bushings. You can possibly lube them, if you can get to them, but that will only be a temp fix. Always good to put in new ones when changing a clutch as a precaution against squeaking too.

Hmm, after watching the video I don't think that's what it is. A squeaky bushing should only squeak when you depress the clutch pedal.

Well I dont know what else it would be, im assuming that when im driving the road vibrations are making something rub in there the same when the pedal is depressed.idk.

try adjusting the clutch linkage. alot of times when you buy a used car the previous owner never adjusted it, which needs to be done periodically since it tend to move alot
