If the radio is otherwise working I would recommend leaving the IF cans alone. I would also recommend looking for other sources of trouble before concluding that the IF cans are to blame as they are a bit tedious to open up and repair without good reason. The last problem that I had with an IF can wasn't silver migration it was a bad mechanical contact with the mica capacitors in the bottom which resulted in a volume drop any time the IF can got bumped.
