Default 1st gear whine

So last night I gave it some beans. standing start down hill launch ,just me ,myself & I..
I've noticed a whining noise in first gear today only when driving no noise when clutch not engaged or in any other gear.
So from what I've read it's poss the clutch release bearing or g/ box oil ,stripped something .ill check oils tomorrow .
But if its the release bearing what should I do apart from the obvious remove an replace .is it something you can live with or change ASAP .

Thanks in advance

Release bearing is something you will hear stationary pushing the clutch up and down should notice a change in noise slightly, but if it is that at cause, you can live with it for awhile

Maybe its time to replace the diff oil...always should be done as part of your annual service mate
