It's a long shot but have you had new rims fitted recently?

Had a similar noise turned out to be a stone wedged near the brake pad took 6 months and 3 garages to work it out. It was a very small stone that made noise after a few K's of driving

Check that the steering stabiliser isn't contacting the diff cover at full lock resulting in a creaking noise
Happened to mine after being off road due to knocking back of protruding bolt that holds it in place

Mine has just done that... more of a short whistle as the bolt scrapes over the diff housing. Must admit it had me stumped for a minute..

Going back to the OP...
If you have not had the front UJ’s replaced it’s most likely them. My OEM’s lasted over 200k kms with mostly weekend use only (about 9 years of ..).... if you can get wheel jacked up then clasp you hand over the joint the best you can fell the movement between the knuckles as you rotate the wheel back and forth. I think I have video I’ll see if I can up load...

Creaking could be the rubber bushes on the sway bar, as well. Mine do that regularly.

I also notice mine doing that especially at very low speeds.
