I'm anaware of any opera roles written for castrati that are anything other than major, adult male roles.
Castrati sang minor roles, too. Most of the Handel operas have multiple castrato roles. In Rinaldo, for instance, in addition to the title role, Eustazio was also a castrato originally. (I think the part is cut altogether in later edition.)
