The brake part of this is interesting...

You said that the noise didn't occur when your foot was on the brake. So I'm wondering --and this is a really wild-ass guess-- if either a caliper slide is not lubricated or the backs of the pads are either not clad with the plastic anti-squeak strip or were not hit with some anti-squeal coating, or maybe the backing plate is touching something. It really doesn't make any sense that this would be it, but who knows.
Realize also that the brake action could be incidental to this. Are you sure the noise is outside the car? I wonder if there's something in or under the dash doing this, or something against the firewall. Has anyone checked your steering rack? Steering column?
Good luck!
