Anyone know of and heat sinks for socket 5, 7 or sk370 that use a 40mm or 60mm fan?
All I find use 50mm fans along with a few latter sk370/462 sinks that use 80mm fans.

Socket A HSFs often use 60mm fans.
I don't know about the smaller sizes, but often you could simply replace the existing fan with a smaller one, though I wouldn't really know why you would want to do that.
There were possibly a few early Socket 7 (maybe even Socket 5) HSFs that used a 40mm fan (some attached directly to the CPU like was more common in the later 486 days), but why would you want one of these?
Either works but many SS7 boards are fairly restrictive due to cap arrangement near the socket so just go with 40mm. 60mm will fit some but not all SS7 boards.

Socket 370 Celeron and Coppermine HSF's usually have a 50 or 60mm fan and work great for S7/SS7

TBH you can put large fans on pretty much any heatsink. I currently have a 120mm fan on a generic s370 HS sitting atop an Athlon s462 CPU. It's tied with zipties, and works wonderfully, low noise etc. 😀
