Flash head dimensions database???

I'm looking for a place that lists he head sizes of some flashes. I have a promaster 7000 but there don't seem to be that many choices when it comes to pop on diffusers. I'm looking for any info that would help me figure out which other flashes have the same head dimensions. The 7000 is 3.25" wide by 1.8" high.

No one? Well then, can you guys and gals maybe tell me what flashes you have and what the head size is? Which diffusers you use?
I have my gels on the way, I have my wi-fi triggers and all I need now is a few diffusers...

All I've got that they might make that sort of thing for is a 285, it's about 2 1/4 3 3/8 up front.

You might take at look here, or maybe you can just look here.

thanks.
So going by the stofen site, my 7000m uses the same size diffuser as the canon 540 and 550 and the vivitar 2500s use the same diffuser as a canon 380. Thanks again and sorry about not looking at those sites beforehand, I'm usually good at research...
