Help with steam boiler sizing

I just looked at a steam boiler replacement where I can't find numbers for some of the heating units. Two of them were sheet metal convectors with cast iron heat exchangers in them. They were 14 section on 2" centers. They slanted from front to back and the fins on the sections slanted up toward the front to draw the airflow through the sections. Both were built into the walls, one had a cabinet 23"H X 33"L the other was 21"H X 33"L.
The third unit is an indirect steam radiator in a duct. Seven sections with heat pins like a boiler approx. section size is 18" X 35". Thanks for any input.
