Will this fit Hella Series 2492?
No. Hella Series 2492 uses the BA15S single-contact H2492 Star (PN 8000067). The HEX GE90 / GE90 Star products on this page are BA15D double-contact non-index bulbs.
Will this fit Aqua Signal Series 40?

Dr. LED HEX GE90 and GE90 Star bulbs are low-draw LED replacements for common BA15D double-contact non-index navigation bulbs used in Perko, Scotty, and similar anchor and navigation lights. Models draw about ~0.12A (~1W) and use a non-polarized connection. HEX GE90 Star models provide Zero Radio Frequency (RF) Emissions and No Electromagnetic Interference (EMI).
HEX GE90 and GE90 Star models are certified for 2NM navigation-light performance in compatible fixtures and share the same certified LED engines used in Polar Star 40. The HEX GE90 series features a lower-profile design than the Polar Star 40 series.
