Question Au xr8 driveline wine

Hi there my au xr8 has over the last 10 000ks started to develope a wine in the drive line some were. Now it sounded like it was in the gearbox to me from 3rd gear up you can really hear it so I took it to my local mech and he drove it and said its got to be the gear box too.

So going on that info I pulled the gear box and got him to check it out and he couldn't find anything wrong but replaced the bearings anyway and said the gears looked fine. Bolted it back in and the noise is still there so what could it be ??? could it be the diff and the noise is coming up the tailshaft and sounding like its coming from the gearbox beacuse I am stumped everyone who has heard it says its coming from gearbox.

Its a really metalic noise and say at 100kmh if i get on the throttle you hear it and if I back off you hear it, but clutch in you cant and in neutrall you cant. What could it be ??? Mech thought it sounded like a dry bearing.

Any advice would be much appreciated
Thanks
