Yes, they made a 380 Lee Loader. I've never come across one though.
Site below has info for all of the LL's made and data sheets for most of them.

For a minimal outlay of probably $15-$20 you can buy a chamber casting alloy and do a chamber casting yourself. At least at that point you'll have an idea of what you have and an idea of what to do going forward, if anything.
Do an internet search for some of the older Alliant manuals. Here's one place that has several old manuals with Green Dot in those calibers. http://www.castpics.net/LoadData/Freebies/RM/Alliant.html
Check the fit of your bullet profile with the seating stem. I've had bullets that don't fit the seating stem very well that end up resulting in varied OAL's. You can remedy this with hot glue and making a custom fit stem to the bullet profile..
For those that may already have the aluminum base Lee turret press, you can buy a primer chute that fits into the base and routes decapped primers into a tube.

I use a pencil engraver to mark out the original headstamp caliber. It's not fine enough to note the converted caliber, but at least the original caliber is obscured.
I've purchased several used guns via GB with no issues. Don't be shy about asking for additional photos if you want to see something they don't provide in the ad.
223 rounds on stripper clips will fit perfectly inside a 12ga 2.75" shotgun shell box for storage/transport. You can get 120 rounds in a box with a spoon. I put a label on the top and sides of the box to note the contents/avoid confusion with regular shotgun shells.
If you have not tried already, try seating the bullet a little deeper and then use the kinetic puller. Seating a little deeper will help loosen the crimp.
