Yes it is the Y-caps leakage. Personally I use 10nF or less.
And, they have to be Y-type safety caps. This is what in old lingo is known as "death cap", as at the time safety Y type was not available and if those broke down, they often shorted, electrocuting the owner if he touched between the chassis and GND (like if the cap is in an amp and the owner plays guitar and touches the amp, or walks on GND-ed surface).

People who do not drink, do not smoke, do not eat red meat will one day feel really stupid lying there and dying from nothing.
