\setupbuffer has before and after keys which can be used. Example:

\setupbuffer
 [before=\blank\blackrule\startnarrower\BufferStyle,
  after=\stopnarrower\blackrule\blank]

%% alternatively define custom buffers
\definebuffer
 [foobar]

\setupblackrules
  [width=1cm,
   height=1pt,
   color=gray]

\definehighlight
  [BufferStyle]
  [style=smallitalic,
   color=blue]

\startbuffer
  \samplefile{knuth}
\stopbuffer

\starttext
  \samplefile{knuth}
  \getbuffer
  \samplefile{knuth}

\stoptext
