No if you spin a bearing, you will hear the rod slapping. You will definatly know the sound. Check your timing belt, it may be too tight or rubbing on something.

The sound you're describing sounds like a bad Throw Out Bearing (Like slotec stated)

The Throw Out Bearing has gone bad in my Z6, causing a horrible tapping sound. Do this, press in your clutch, if the noise stops, or gets less audible... It's more than likely your throw out bearing.

Here is a video sample of what mine sounds like from under the car.

Short clip with me under the car about a foot or so away from the Bell Housing. Activating the clutch by hand.

Another short clip with me sitting in the drivers seat

They're night shots, but if you can deffinately hear the difference... Just crank the volume up a bit

Bad mainshaft and countershaft bearings inside the tranny can also sound like this too.
