The clutch... and rear crankshaft, or front trans seal if either is leaking oil. Do you have freeplay at the top of clutch pedal travel?

yes there is free play in the clutch pedal about inch and a half of play and the throw out bearing makes that squeeling noise if i dont tap and hold it a lil bit while im driving.

Deffinatly time to replace your clutch. Manual transmissions can not slip.
