Good news...
So I set out today to replace the remaining individual electrolytics and the death cap.
I also used DeoxIT on all controls and switches, followed by FaderLube on all controls.
The death cap was easy. I replaced the original .01 uF "Black Beauty" line to ground cap with a modern safety cap.
Four small electrolytics...not so easy.

Hint: The new electrolytics are silver, made by Vishay-Sprague.
There is still one more to do. And it is going to be fun. NOT.
