You shouldnt put a grinder in your engine. Have you thought about the throw out bearing or input shaft bearing? At what times does this noise occur?

Maybe a bad A/C idler pulley.

Remove the power steering, A/C, and then alternator belt in that order. If removing one of these belts eliminates the noise, then you have pinpointed the problem.

Check your engine oil before you drive it again.

if it has that many miles, i would change the oil every 2,500 miles. and give it its tune up earlier than what it should be.

or just rev past 7,000rpm and buy a GSR!

Go get it diagnosed somewhere. You REALLY think that a bunch of people can pin point your issue over the internet with little to no details from you?

Go to a shop.

Put a long screwdriver to your transaxle housing and see if the grinding is coming from there..if it is, it's most likely your input shaft bearing.

Honda had an offical TSB for the problem back in the late 90's early 2000's I believe...my 1996 dx does the same thing.

Does it go away with the clutch pressed to the floor?
