No one remakes them and sells them new. You will have to search the bone yards for them or ebay.

I found aluminum drums on a few Firebirds and Camaros. They were early 3rd gen cars, around 1982-84. Would these fit...?

Should. PN 1255496 cast in and you are good to go. Be aware all these drums are slightly thicker where they bolt on so make sure you have good lugnut engagement. Some have reported cracks in that area as well so always give them a good look and don't go past the cutting dimensions cast in.

I'm pretty sure I'm running the F-body units on my Olds, and I had to have the center turned larger on a lathe for use with Moser axles, FYI.
