You just need a headlight bezel for a '73 full-size Oldsmobile. Delta 88, 98, or Custom Cruiser will work. Body style and number of doors doesn't matter.
Your sources are going to be someone who has one to sell, ebay, or something like that. No one makes these new.
You've posted your need, and I'll bet someone here will have one. One of the users here by the name of bigdooly has been parting out '70s big Oldsmobiles, and he might have one. One thing to keep in mind is that each year Olds changed the look of the front end, and the headlight bezels changed. So only 1973 will work on your car.
That's a '73 Delta 88. The headlight bezel will fit your car. You are correct that Toronado would not work. The front end of the Toronados were completely different from the 88s and 98s.
actually I lied about having one turns out I have two
one that is off the car I believe it looks better
once again find myself racing the Sun to get these pictures before it went down and for some reason Twilight make things look way better than what they actually do in person so I do not believe this photo was an honest reflection of the quality of these parts I think they're at least a notch down from the way they look in these pictures

One thing to keep in mind is that these are not interchangeable left side to right side. At least, I'm about 99% sure they're not. The headlight aiming adjusting screw openings are on the outboard side of each headlight, so if they were flipped, the headlight adjusting screws would be inaccessible. And that's assuming they would fit on the other side at all, which I don't think they would.

You did make this clear in your first post. It just occurred to me that it hadn't been mentioned in a while, and when rocketscientist said he had two of them, if they're both from the same car, he has one of each, not two of the same thing.
After many unrewardin trips out back over last 30 years...learned thing or two chasin parts & havin parted out more than 1 car....I happen to have two Driverside B - body bezels for a 73....door sill on car is substandard but may have decent one elsewhere
both bezels pictured are drivers '73 B - body..
