comparing papyri with Sinaiticus - especially where there is no Vaticanus

1) Books where there is no Vaticanus 1209 at all

2) Books with Vaticanus but the variant does not match Sinaiticus

just for control - Vaticanus-Sinaiticus agreements

papyri singulars is another question

The extant New Testament portion contains the Gospels, Acts, the general epistles, the Pauline epistles, and the Epistle to the Hebrews (up to Hebrews 9:14, καθα[ριει); it is lacking 1 and 2 Timothy, Titus, Philemon, and Revelation. The missing part of Hebrews and Revelation were supplemented by a 15th-century minuscule hand (folios 760–768), and are catalogued separately as minuscule 1957.[2]

This is the opposite of false papyri claim by James White.

Fourth-century Philemon: P139
James Snapp, Jr

Myths and Mistakes
Philemon, date before AD 900.18The earliest witnesses include P61 (ca. 700),
P87 (third century), P139 (fourth century), 01 (fourth century), 02 (fifth
century), 04 (fifth century), 06 (sixth century), 016 (fifth century), and 048
(fifth century). The earliest Greek witness to Philemon, P87, is a small scrap
containing little text, fewer than one hundred letters. P139, too, is a small
scrap containing portions of a handful of verses. A later papyrus manuscript
of Philemon, P61, also is fragmentary and contains very little text. Manu-
script 04 is lacking the first two verses; 016 is fragmentary, having suffered
burns; and 048 is a palimpsest in which the undertext has been written over
and is very difficult to see, leading to deficient portions for Philemon. In
other words, of the nine manuscripts containing Philemon before circa AD
700, only three contain the entire text of Philemon: 01,02, and 06.19 Fourteen
extant manuscripts of Philemon date to the ninth century AD: 010,012,018,
020, 025, 044, 0150, 0278, 0319, 33,1424,1841,1862, and 1900. These manu-
scripts represent different textual clusters and signify a period of some
textual diversity. In addition, thirty-six extant manuscripts of Philemon date
to the tenth century, and these contain texts very similar to the Majority Text.
So, while we have many manuscripts of Philemon, it is important to note
that the majority of those manuscripts represent a later text. Only about 4
percent of the manuscripts we have for Philemon date to before the year 900,
and that number climbs to only about 10 percent when including manu-
scripts from the 900s.
