Default Problems with the stang =( HELP

Lately I've been hearing a lot of weird noises coming from my Mustang.. I'll try to describe them as best I can.. I can take some videos if need be.. So first noise is a knock under the hood when idling (rarely).. I think thats from using low grade fuel.. Not TO worried about that.. The next is a squeaking sound coming from the hood when idling.. It's quite loud.. Also when idling sometimes I hear like a jingling sound but when I look under the hood I don't see anything jingling??? But the main worrying sound is when I start the car.. It sounds like a dragging sound. Even when I'm not driving. And when I push on the clutch I hear a light whining sound coming from the actual shifting ****.. And you can hear it on the out side of the car like a whine sound.. Very annoying and very worried.. Any suggestions will help!! Thanks fellow Mustang fans!!!!!!!!

The first one is prolly using cheap gas. The next one is probably a bad idler pulley or the bearings in the alternator. The last one is probably a bad throwout bearing or pilot bearing.
