Happy New year,

I was changing the front bearings on my master, and I notice that the back cork seal where brittle and parts have broken off (also known as the Packing wheel dust shield )

Where can I purchase the dust cover?

or can I just grease the inner and outer bearings and not be worried about the dust cover?

The first place I would look is "THE FILLING STATION" they have a web site that you can order parts from.

That piece of cork is to keep road a brake dust out of the bearings, I dont recommend leaving it out or damaged.
