the clutch can be found on Ebay for 39.95 I think was the price, and oil is cheap a couple of bucks, some cans even have a filler hose and fitting attahced to them for under 10 bucks.
But if it is a real bad internal noise, it is better not to use the Compressor because once if Fails internally and locks up, it will fill the system with trash and you will have to flush out the AC.
I have heard them make a little noise and work fine for years, my wife had a accord with a noisey compressor that chattered for 2 summers before it eventially went out. IF it is internall you will eventially also have to replace it.
