Default Metal on metal noise at 70kmh

Hi guys and gals,

I've got a 1995 wrx that has recently started making a noise that I haven't been able to track down
It's sort of sounds like metal on metal, I assumed a wheel bearing so I jacked her up and I couldn't find any play in any of the wheels. I checked all the ball joints and bushings while I was at it but nothing seemed to be of concern.

The noise starts at 65km/h is at its loudest at 70 and is gone by 80 and only present at really low throttle( just enough to stop speed from dropping, 5% or so), if I accelerate harder it's not present and same for when I take my foot off the accelerator. The gear I'm in doesn't change it at all.

Any suggestions of what to else check?
