Seems tough to explain loud clanking with clutch glazing, I think. I like the idea of searching through the underside clutch/flywheel cover. I'd suggest a check sooner rather than later so you are more likely to find a small object before it possibly slips out a crack. My Civic's underside service-check cover is not an absolute tight fit. Little spring bits may already have dropped through.
