Also what about the other caps(axial)

Some of them have markings on them.Identifying what they are.

The 2 axial caps in the upper LT of the pic don't have any markings on them.

I never bother to replace axial caps (they don't leak) unless they have a problem. I did recap all the metal ones on both my IIx systems when I got them.

I replace them. because they do go bad, and i have seen them leak before. Just not in a IIx, as ive never seen a IIx. 

but i had to change half a dozen in an oscilloscope once for leaking. 

 
I would like to replace them but I cant see what the rating is on them.

I know three of them are 470uf 16volt.The other two I cant see what they are.
