The metal can under the chassis is 0.25mFd.
The capacitor bank should be re-stuffed. Sometimes the insides come out easily, sometimes they don't. There are several threads here about different methods for re-stuffing them.
Recommend you re-stuff the bakelite blocks, as they also serve as "tie-down" points for the radio circuitry.
I just simmer water in a pot I never intend to use for food, and let the bakelite block sit in the hot water until the wax is soft enough to pry out.
