Several metals will dissolve in HCl alone.
Mainly the metals above hydrogen in the reactivity series of metals.
See the reactivity series of metals.
Metals that will not dissolve in HCl alone, can dissolve in HCl with a strong oxidizer like chlorine gas (the action Of the acid and bleach generates chlorine gas in solution...).

The list of metals which would dissolve in HCl and bleach would makeup a very long list of metals.

Some of which would normally passivate, will more strongly react in the action of that chlorine gas, and form insoluble salts of metal chloride more easily than they would if in HCl alone...
