I use the same size bike for road and track, but definitely prefer narrower bars on the track. I'm using 33cm on the track and can't fault them. It's the kind of thing that people will often ask "isn't it uncomfortable/too twitchy/etc" but when they try it they love it.
38cm would be fine as it's not that different from what you have (less than 10%) but I'd say try narrower!
If you're looking for bars just to try the width then check out Deda. I forget the model name, but the cheapest bars they do go all they way down to 38cm but they measure O2O so it's about 35cm C2C
