Sure - here's my spreadsheet file, listing planes from the one with most recorded battles with U-Boats to ones with no encounters at all:

As for sources, I used two lists on uboat.net:
1) Aircraft losses to U-Boats:
https://uboat.net/history/aircraft_losses.htm
2) U-Boat losses (these are ordered by year, with cause of loss noted by each boat):
https://uboat.net/fates/losses/
Of course there's a gap in data here - the list doesn't cover battles that didn't result in destruction of either plane or the boat. Still, if a plane didn't score any kills or suffer any losses, one can assume it either wasn't used or was utterly ineffective in this role.
