1968 1800s Manual Trans Noise 1800 1968

Hi,
I'm new to Volvo's and this board...so 'hi' everyone. Anyway problem I have is with my fiancee's car's transmission. It's the 4 speed manual type with overdrive. When you select a gear (any gear) and take your foot off the clutch the trans makes a bad whining sound. The sound goes away when (a) step on the gas or (b) push the clutch pedal down. It seems worse if the car is moving downhill, and your foots off the gas.

Any ideas? Hope someone can help. I'm probably way off but could it be the hydraulic clutch needs bleeding?

Thanks
Rob
