First thoughts; The anti spin push rod and Oberon slave should be used WITHOUT the 10mm spacer that Oberon supply with the kit.
As Rollo said, the pin should locate in the anti-rotation slots in the slave. It is only possible to install the rod correctly from the slave end with the slave removed.

Looking at the pressure plate end, you will have noticed the top hat that fits inside the bearing. This should be a tight fit in the inner race and should not be able to rotate within the inner race itself.. Bear in mind that when it gets hot it might be gaining a bit of clearance and "running" in the bearing,
The top hat has a small O-ring inside it which has an amount of grip on the rod and supports it centrally in the top hat, if this is not present it might allow the rod to resonate in some way?

A common source of groanings, whining and squealing on clutches and brakes is a build up of dust from the friction material. Washing with the aptly named clutch and brake cleaner is the answer... Some funny noises during bedding in is not unusual.... A wash will do no harm.
