T-5 in a 1988 Camaro 2.8L Squeals in first and second gear...

Fixing to buy a Camaro and it has an issue with first and second gear having a fluid sounding squeal. There is no chatter or hesistation from the car. Once it's in third it goes away. Any ideas. Kinda new to Manual third gens. Thank for any help or advice.

No issues getting in gear... it shifts smoothly and I thought about it and agree with your thought about the throwout bearing ... going to try and get it lubed up today.
