Excessive transmission noise?

Over the past week while driving over 3 hours a day I started noticing what to me sounded like a wheel bearing noise. In the process of looking them over I started to spin my wheels and heard a lot of noise coming from my transmission. Looking on here I have seen posts saying its normal but with no videos to know what the degree of noise those people were having I don't know for sure if this is "normal". So I took this video. Excuse the crappy cellphone view. This is looking directly up at the transmission and me hand spinning the wheels. Only work I have had done to the transmission since I have owned it was a clutch replacement about 6 months ago to the gm performance one. Car is an 09 SS with the LSD with 120k.

No that is not normal sounding but I can't tell you what's wrong. Mine with either trans, doesn't sound like that.

Ill just have to take it in and see what the dealer says. Luckily the extended warranty is still good on this car. I had some one say it sounded like a chipped tooth on a gear but i know nothing about transmissions other than basics. The only time this trans was messed with was when i had the dealer change the clutch.

I couldnt tell you, before this car the only manual transmission ive had experience with were the Borg Warner T5's. Right now the transmission operates normally with no issues.
