droning/grinding sound

I am 99.999% sure it is a wheel bearing. Just want to clear it up before I go buying stuff.
Sounds like my left rear wheel is constantly driving on gravel. Gets louder with speed, stays consistant through corners and reverse.
Wheel bearing, right?
It's cheaper/easier to change the entire hub. What hubs cross reference with it? I have heard impreze, but what model/year? I think there is a 1.8 at the junkyard. Not a sport model or anything. Just a grociery getter. Will that work? Do I need both reear hubs for it to be even? Or are they exactly the same?
Thanks.
BTW, I did a search and just couldn't find the answers I was looking for.
