I'm guessing this sound is coming from my brakes??

So, I've had a good solid pull to the passenger side while driving. It may be my front right rotor, I'll be looking to possibly replace it soon. But while checking that all 4 tires spin freely with no issues I came across this sound on the driver rear wheel. I'm thinking its time to pull the drums off and inspect the rear brakes. Good place to start?

Note: you'll need to be in a quiet place with decent volume to hear the sound.

good place to start for sure. Also check to see if you see any gear oil. I had the same pattern of sound but louder ended up being bad wheel bearing.but I had no leaks.
 
I'd say normal due to having old brake drums and shoes. Give a good cleaning inside and adjust the brake shoes. I'd stay with OEM brake shoes and if possible try OEM drums. Those are about %75 a piece from Camelback.
