im not sure it was fine before it went in to have the clutch done, the bloke at the garage did say he struggled to get the gearbox off.

sounds like they might not have removed the clutch pivot pin and disengaged the clutch fork from the release bearing, gearbox will not come out unless this is done, as for the noise I would have it checked asap by an inderpendant person who knows scoobys as it is more than likely something serious and you dont want anything on the drivetrain letting go while you giving it some stick,
worst case senario a stripped thread and if that were the case and it was my RB5 I would want to know about it

Ps; not having a dig at your mechanic bud, just stating something that has happend to me in the past, hope you get it sorted

regards,

Greg
