Need help with Admiral Chassis 20A6 (PWS-E6183AS) — SAMS 938-3 Parts Info

Hi everyone!
I’m currently restoring a vintage Admiral PWS-E6183AS with Chassis 20A6. I’m doing a full high-end recap using Nichicon KZ and Elna Silmic II.
I’ve hit a bit of a road block with the small "brick-style" capacitors. Specifically, I have 75pF and 10pF caps that have an underline in their markings (e.g., 75 and 10). I suspect they might be Silver Mica, but I want to be 100% sure before I replace them with Noble Silver Micas.
Does anyone have the SAMS Photofact Set 938, Folder 3 (which covers the 20A6 chassis)? Could you please check the Parts List and confirm if C64 (75pF) and the 10pF caps are listed as Mica or Ceramic?
Any photos of the schematic or parts list for this chassis would be a huge help!
Thanks in advance!

Just a small update: I've already replaced the main filter cap with a 10,000uF 63V one to rock my 4-ohm speakers. Now I'm really itching to find out about those small caps to finish the signal path. Any help with SAMS 938-3 is much appreciated!
