Question High frequent noice from left front wheel, please help

Hello.

I have a Corolla 94', just passed 100 000km which is like a trip to the mailbox for any Toyota , but still I've noticed a high frequent noice this last week .

From the left front wheel there is a high, high pitch squeeel that gets worse the longer I drive. I tried to clucth, break, turn fast, turn slow generarely throw the car around in order to find any situation to trigger out the noice.

My results:

High frequency noice when:
- Driving straight
- Turning left
-The faster I got the louder the noice becomes

The noice stops when:
-Turning right
-While breaking
-When slowing down to a stand-still the noice fades away.

What I have been able to "read" from this is that it is most likely a break or bearing problem and not the engine itself.
I "jacked" up the car to feel the motion in the front wheels and hopefully recreate the noice, but no luck.
To my surprise the right wheel was harder to spin than the left where the noice comes from .

Have anybody encountered a similar problem or know what it might be??
Any feed-back will be highly appreciated.

Best Regards
Sweet summer love
