Hard to find capacitors

Hello. I’m looking for some hard to find replacement caps for out Kuba Carmen amp. Some I’ve found, right capacitance but higher voltage. I’ve heard that should be fine. Others I can’t find at all. Any suggestions? Picture for reference.

What value/voltages are you looking to replace? I can see some but not others. A schematic would help if available.
 
the circled caps look like 2200pf and 470pf. Pretty standard values. Since its a tube circuit probably want to go with at least 400V parts.
 
These are very close to the output transformers and i see a 1000v DC (flat line) marking on one. It probably needs to be that, the voltage plate to plate is quite high.

The other ratings are AC volts, ~

Worst case a pair of 500v in series at double the value will get it, but you may also need to consider ceramic caps here.
