Wet filament can cause stringing.

In this case it’s dry. I’m not sure I would call it stringing actually, it’s the entire wall bead that kinda shrinks and doesn’t adhere to the wall next to it.

Welcome to the forum!
Did you have supports turned on?
How long have you dried it? Silk (including “metal”) is more sensitive to moisture than PLA Basic.
And what nozzle temp, flow rate and speeds are you using? PLA metal has all the shortcomings of silk filaments when compared to PLA Basic, benefiting from a higher nozzle temp, lower may flow and reduced speeds.

Printed in the orientation you noted, the lower sides of those panels would be overhangs which can require certain settings to print cleanly.
As @PrinterMcgee alluded to, they may even need supports.
You can try slowing printing down even more on the overhangs, maybe increase fan settings, use support, or possibly dry the filament some more in case it actually is carrying more water than you think. Wet (not visibly wet) filament can cause that issue is why it’s being mentioned.
