You can get a guestimate by looking at an existing mirror site.

Set of WBEL3 i386 ISOs (including source ISOs) ~ 3.2 Gb, so three releases
of WBEL3 i386 ~ 9.6Gb.
Exploded tree of WBEL3 i386 release ~ 3.2 Gb.

Set of WBEL3 x86_64 ISOs (including source ISOs) ~ 3.2 Gb, so two releases
of WBEL3 x86_64 ISOs ~ 6.4 Gb.
Exploded tree of WBEL3 x86_64 ~ 3.2 Gb.

Total for WBEL3 without updates ~ 22.4 Gb.

I can cheat (since I have them) and tell you that the updates for i386 are
~ 2.1 Gb, I would guess x86_64 is about the same.  So:

Total for WBEL3 with updates ~ 26.6 Gb.

Similar math for WBEL4 gives and additional ~10.2 Gb.
