Whats the problem? Or how can I fix it?
 
Is the sound coming from under the hood or through your shifter cables?
 
usually this kind of sound is generated by the mains bearings in the tranny ( tapered bearings at the ends of each shafts ) This appear when the bearings got lots of mileage, so cage and roller a worn a bit and get noisy.
 
The noise seems to be coming from the front right of the car, but like I said leaves immediately when I pull the shifter a little left.
I may try adjusting the cables that is a good Idea.

If it was the main bearings would it stop if I pulled the shifter slightly left??
 
Yes, that could be a possibility.

Or it could be something in your shift cables raddling!
