Most 2s packs will be 2p, at least in the US.
You'll also find that most hardcase 2s packs for cars are all about the same size (unless you go to the jumbo 10000mah ones).

2s is the voltage (2 cells in series adds the voltage of each together), so it isn't talking a physical size in that case, it is talking about not using a higher voltage pack. The 2p is just how the battery is constructed (2 sets of cells in parallel inside the case to get to the capacity of the pack).

In short, a 2s2p is a 2s and should be fine.
