One of my favorite traditional plum shaped types that is a tomato machine - and has the advantage of good fresh flavor (so more versatile than many of the Roma types) is the bright yellow fruited, indeterminate Yellow Bell. To me, this is a highly underrated variety...you just gotta like yellow tomato sauce or paste!

I don't grow specific types for sauce or paste - I use whatever is ripe....you just need to adjust the time to evaporate off the moisture (esp. in those that are particularly juicy).
