I have experience in both roles. The main difference between product-owner-vs-project-manager is their focus and responsibilities. A product manager is usually responsible for implementing the product according to the requirements and plan. A product owner is more focused on strategy, interacting with customers and understanding their needs. I recently came across a site that provides a good comparison between a product manager and a product owner. It details the responsibilities, skills and differences between these roles. It helped me better understand their functional differences. You can take a look at this resource too, it might be helpful.
