I think you'll find a 380 and a 384 are not the same :-)  But the 8270/8271
substitutions by 74178/74179 seem to match and are good to know.

A leading additional 5 or 9 means DEC selected examples of devices, eg 
97401/7401, 380/5380, etc against some particular criteria, such as 
leakage, or drive current.

Here's a list I found some time ago (most of the comments are not mine, 
and I'm sorry I've lost the attribution, but I've updated it slightly):

 From PDP-8 maintenance manual 10-5 and RK05 prints.

Also I have found the following parts to be similar but this is not from
DEC documentation so check your particular part.
DEC 82xx is Signetics 82xx series
DEC 5xxx is Signetics SPxxx
DEC 88xx is National DS88xx series or also I think Signetics 8Txx series
DEC 97401 is also labeled a SN7401, was a selected version of that part
     for low leakage current.
DEC 314, DEC314		SP314A
DEC 380, DEC380		SP380A, also DS8640 is similar
DEC 384, DEC384		SP384A
DEC 8881, DEC8881	SN7401 has same pinout but less drive, SN7439
                         has the drive and same pinout.

For R series repairs B Klatt said:
I've successfully used 1N4148-type diodes and 2N3904 (NPN) and
2N3906 (PNP) as general purpose substitutes in the few R-series
repairs I've made.   The MPSA05 and MPSA55 were popular with
DEC designers and are still readily available.
