I intend to join the IARU HF contest in the QRP category (i.e. 5 watts output).

I have got a RG58 going to my inverted V antenna. The coax is about 45
meters in length (roughly 135 feet).

How much power should I request from my K2 to get 5 watts output from the
antenna?

73!

The 5 watt power level for QRP refers to the output of the transmitter, not the antenna.

73 - Bob, N7XY
