Your quite probably looking at two SE output transformers, a B+ transformer W/ heater voltages, and perhaps a big Ol' choke for the PS.
The sleek casing is cosmetic so as not to be "industrial" looking. Often they are sold both bare & ugly or "Potted" as they call it......with this casing.
Many manufacturers use the same stamping to enclose their product.....it looks like the label up top has been removed for some reason.....check to see if there is some, any ID from beneath.

My guess is that is a Push-Pull amp judging from the tubes count. Solid state rectification. The japanese makers such as Tango or Tamura sometimes look like those transformers, especially with the rectangular area for the label on top.

A pic from the underside of that amp will be worth a thousand words.....
