What info do I need to order these resistors?

Hi all,
The new one are what Lupe Lopez gave me a link to: http://www.newark.com/vishay-bc-components/mrs25000c2201fct00/resistor-thin-film-2-2k-0-6w-1/dp/97K5580, Thanks Lupe....
They are 600mW and if a 1/2 watt is: 500mW and what I have (the old ones) are a 1/2 watt then I should be good to go. I guess there is no way to know what watt my old ones (in photo on the board) are?
I think I'm good with these Lupe just wanted to post the size difference and get some feed back, this board was made in the early 80's

So they should be able to handle the power themselves as the old ones also look to be about 500mW but you need to remember they will run hotter (Less surface area to dissipate the heat) so when you mount them, keep them raised off the board quite way or you run the risk of burning the board
