Default High pitched squeal after clutch install... *Vid inside*

***see post 3 for resolution***

Just installed a new clutch and now have a very high pitched whine that I cant track down. It does it regardless if the clutch is in or out, in gear or not, so I know its not the pilot bushing. It seems to be coming from around the starter/bellhousing area. It is RPM related and gets extremely high in pitch as the RPM go up. Im really at a loss here, check out the video. Any input?

Could the starter not be disengaging? Not really sure how I would check that, cant just pull the starter and start the car to see if the whine is gone lol.

Never mind, Im an idiot... apparently I pinched the o2 wire between the starter and bellhousing when I was putting it back together. Was doing it at night and somehow must have missed it. No more whine, but my o2 wire sure needs some help!
