Replacing your 16uf with 22uf @450v is fine on problem there. As for your other issue You've got four filter caps. Three are one can. Pn #67 see http://www.nostalgiaair.org/PagesByModel...013811.pdf
The tricky thing is that one of those caps is wired backwards compared to the others. The one that is closest to the bottom (10uf section) the- side connect to the transformer tap and the + side connects to the chassis. You will need separate. cap for this as the one in the can the - is connected to the tap not chassis ground. You can use a lower voltage cap there like 50v of so.

I was down in the basement in my dad's
workshop. Perusing his Sam's Photofoacts
Vol 1-50 admiring the old set and trying to
figure out what all those squiggly meant.
