My suggestion would be to replace all the wax paper caps first. These are the ones that are problematic, and in your radio have values of .003 uF and larger. C215 with a value of .001 uF also seems to be a paper cap, along with line bypasses C100 and C101 which should be replaced
Looking at your earlier chassis photo, the 100 pF bypass caps appear to be tubular ceramics as do the 1000 pF and 1500 pF values, and as such are very reliable and would be unaffected by the heat from the fire. I would leave these undisturbed. There are also some postage stamp micas which I would also leave alone.
