Whenever I reverse park or sometimes take a right turn, a strange noise comes from my left wheel. It sounds like a belt or something metal is griding. It sounds like a rubbing sound of some sort. I wonder what it is

Front or rear wheel?
Did you check the bearings?

metal grinding on the left side while making a right turn...that's grounds for a bearing....dunno about the whole reverse and park thing...if its something rubbing or whatever you wanna look for so called 'witness marks'...maybe it coould be bushings, ream beam?? Just throwing some ideas...more info would be nice

Is your CV joint ripped? Could be you need a new axel.
