The Xbox 360 has used multiple different type of heatsinks for cooling the processors.
Xbox 360 (Original)
The Original Xbox 360 used 2 heatsinks: one for the CPU, and one for the GPU. There were also 2 different versions of each heatsink.
Heatpipe CPU
The heatsink used to cool Waternoose on the Original Xbox 360. It was also very briefly used to cool Loki on very early versions of the Falcon motherboard.
Aluminum CPU
The heatsink used to cool Loki on the Original Xbox 360. As Loki has a significantly reduced TDP, this heatsink has less thermal mass than the one it replaces despite being physically larger.
Low Profile GPU
Extended GPU
Xbox 360 S and Xbox 360 E
The Xbox 360 S and Xbox 360 E use a single heatsink for the CGPU. There were 2 versions of the heatsink. Both versions have a fan mounted on them.

Tall Slug
The original heatsink used to cool Valhalla on the Trinity motherboard. This heatsink was only used for a brief time.
Short Slug
This heatsink replaced the Tall Slug CGPU heatsink for cooling Valhalla, and was used on the Trinity, Corona, Waitsburg, and Stingray. It was also used on Winchester with slightly shortened pegs on the bottom, as Winchester removed the IHS.
