450V is allowed there; that does not mean you have to. You could use 500V and, this said, you could benefit from buying in bulk.

You are referring to the input filter; first of usually the backelite block does not contain any electrolytic caps. THis one shows 0.015uF x2 and 25uF. I do not see any third #47 which is 25uF in the sch.
Also they are not ceramic. Were they ceramic, they potentially could've been left there (though they were not Y-rated).
So, it is likely just two 0.015uF and could be replaced by 0.01uF Y1-Y2 rated caps (I gave someone link here 2 dys ago to Mouser's search result).

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.
