Default knocking noise

I have a 1990 Corvette with a 6 speed. The car runs beautiful, except when the car gets hot(afterabout 1 hour of driving)the car develops a knocking noise that seems to be coming from around the transmission area at idle. When you pick up the revs it goes away. It has no effect on driving. It sound like a bearing knock around the transmission area. Any ideas? Otherwise the car runs perfect.

How many miles on your throwout bearing? Does it go away when you push in the clutch?
