Default Light scraping noise front left

Hi
Light scraping noise from front left when taking left turn (both gradual and sharp turn).
2004 S60 with 50k miles.

Dealer offered a $500 brake job.

I checked the pads and rotors - pads less than 1/2 worn, rotors clean and smooth, very slight lip/ridge (<1/16" around outside edge).
I changed the pads anyway, just in-case the caliper was getting close enough to rub against something.

Noise is still there. Is it likely to be brake related? or a wheel bearing?

How do I diagnose?

Thanks,
Steve

Look really close at the back of the Hub and make sure one of the hub bolts didn't back out and is rubbing on the Axle.
