The glossary gives the definition of pull buoy for pull. I think the pull you're looking for is referring to just the arms...the part of the stroke that pulls you through the water.
A common pull drill for breaststroke is doing just the arms with a dolphin kick.
As for the other strokes theirs tons of drills you just have to look. Do a search on this forum or on the internet and you'll find loads of stuff. The most common pull drill (IMO) would be doing just arms with a pull buoy.
