So curious I too have a hum only when I turn left slightly or sharp. It’s a 05 4x4 lariat. You guys think it’s a wheel bearing as well? I would think wheel bearing it would hum turning right as well but nothing, dead quiet.

Yes. Vehicle loading is different when turning left or right and puts opposite forces on the play in the bearing, often causing sound when only turning in one direction.

I had a similar experience; mine would "squeal" in a straight line and went away when I turned slightly to the right... Turned out to be the front drivers side bearing. I had to put a new Wheel Bearing/Hub Assembly, I'm not sure if it's like this on all F150 models or just the 4x4's... I got a Lariat 4x4 if that helps.
