Hi Reese,
The issue, IMO, is that the crack that you have is leaking air and when that air blew across the dust and other things in the crack, a buzzing sound was created.
Did you do an air pressure check of the upper joint?
The only thing that I can think of as to why it affected only clarion G to C is the location of the crack and the necessity of opening the register key.
The important thing is that you solved the problem. I believe your clarinet is rented from the school, so doing some kind of professional repair would not be advisable. What comes to my mind is the possibility of pressing very dense wax into the crack. This, theoretically, would not only stop that air leak, but would also reduce the playing resistance of the instrument because the crack is located in the upper joint.
