Kirk, you unhappy panda you with your bear paws, what did you do to the cap? How did you break off pins from TWO caps? Go back pickin' cotton! 
Oh, and bomb Canada! Just let Arran know in advance. 
(let me guess, you bough axial caps.....)
Now.....let's see.
The first cap runs between GND and pins 4-5 ( I take it they are connected).
Pin 5 is Cathode and if there is a cap to GND it is the feedback cap, so it can be 5uF to 20uF and the voltage there is low so you do not have to exceed 100V rating (even 50 will do but I go 100V just not to keep many caps in stock).
Pin 5 of 43 is also the Cathode so the same goes here - the value can be the same and the voltage also.
