Default Bad creaking sound in driver side front wheel area at lower speeds and turning?

Z front driver side wheel started to make bad squeaking sounds which is very noticeable at slower speeds, possibly at higher speeds but I may not hear it due to road noise, the sound is also present when turning the wheel right.

I’ve taken off the wheel to inspect it an can’t find anything wrong with my eye and am hoping someone can identify it here.

The sound was much less noticeable a month ago but still there which I replaced the sway bar bushings and front driver side ball joint, both did not fix the issue.

Included some videos of the sound when driving and turning the wheel.
