something made a funny noise then it was making a loud whining noise. now it is making a cluning noise all the time I have the clutch out and in gear. going around corners in gear it makes a loud clunking noise and the engine like hesitates. I'm thinking halfshaft or cv? It also steers funny in neutral.

Any ideas? (besides I am a moron?)

It could be about anything. The spider gears in the differential may have broken/chipped and the chunks may be causing it to lock up and jam as you turn corners (which might explain the funny steering). It could be a broken spring in the clutch hub (not likely to cause steering problems), a broken motor mount (letting the motor shift and clunk and causing it to do odd things and the list goes on.

This one may be pretty hard to narrow down from an online description.
