I'm not saying there isn't anything "better", but does this particular pudding really require that many eggs?
4degC/W is 300 sq cm of 1.5mm ali sheet held vertically and supported at corners only - I'd be surprised if the enclosure gave anything close to around 10degC/W - aluminium boxes are incredibly poor heatsinks (the type of alloy used makes a huge difference as well).
