    Bandpass sweep a supersaw and then distort it? If you want metallic sound try messing with FM and/or comb filters (on any sound).

    It's hard to tell from the short sample.

    I already answered this question.

    Why not try messing with/learning FM for yourself? Study and learn about harmonics and overtones. What makes a sound "metallic"?
    If you want real metallic sounds you could record metallic material with a portable recorder (mics) and layer it with your synths. :)
