Default Weird Rubbing sound from left front side of car!

As of today in the evening I have developed a weird Humming/Rubbing sound from around the left side of the engine bay or the left front wheel area. It sounds the same as if the Sturt bar was rubbing against the hood at low speeds and also when for example coming into a driveway where there is a dip and then the driveway goes up. In this case however you hear more than rubbing you hear like something stretchign and popping. At idle the noise is not there. On the FWY for example i hear it a little but you have to really listen to look for it.

To listen I have to go to my back alley and drive the car slow and you hear like marble rocks rolling from left to right under the engine bay or passenger seat area.

Im concerned as I may be confusing this with engine knocking or cracked block but again im mechanically impaired. I have Tein S-techs, 20 rims, High flows, sway bars, true duial exhaust and nitorus. I have many more mods but I think this mentioned are the ones that in any case could be a cause. Im just concerned the engine is going. However the car runs like crazy it is in perfect condition never been better.

Im so concerned. I can have it be whatever but not the engine.
