Nicolas suggested 外人ハンター as an entry. it's not common in Japanese (nothing in the ngrams, ~4000 googits) but seems common in (expat) 
English (144k googits).

there seems to be a strong association with this term applying to gay males who are attracted to white men

I doubt it's [uk], but if it were I'm sure it'd be written in 
katakana rather than hiragana.

"person who is physically attracted to foreigners" is odd as I 
think most people (not only Japanese) are physically attracted 
to foreigners (of all races)
