I'm interested in buying a starboard bow roller for a 1981 382 if anyone has one to sell.

If not, any leads on where to find one?

A new bow roller Sure, the old ones were made by JTR metals in Gulfport fla .
700 and change last time i checked. Lee
 
You can look at West Marine or Defender to see if you can make one work. You could go to metal fabricator to get one custom made.

Jesse, so does a local metal fabricator that will do SS. With him/her they will come to boat and measure.
 
I like the local fabricator idea. Would a bow roller for the starboard side just be mirror image of the port side bow roller? For example, can I take the port side roller to fabricator and say, "make me the opposite?"

If you like the stbd roller and it will fit the anchor you plan to use, yes. Otherwise, I would wait until you choose a second anchor, i.e. Bruce, CQR, etc. and then have it fabricated.

Ken, here is an example of a fabrication using a Bruce and CQR fitted to one piece bow unit.
