Default Dummy load power rating

I was cleaning up today and came across an old dummy load I had that looks
like it is made from 2 watt resistors. ITs mounted on a quart size paint can
lid and looks to be a 50 watts worth of resistors. This looks like it may
have been a commercially built unit and I was wondering what the power
handling capability would be if the resistors were submerged in mineral oil.
