Technics SU-V500 recap question

Hi,
In my Technics SU-V500 amplifier, the old electrolytic capacitors leaked. I wanted to ask if you recommend a specific capacitor model that I can replace them with or a specific manufacturer, e.g. Nichicon. Is it worth replacing the capacitors with ones with a higher capacity or voltage? Thanks in advance for your help

That looks like glue. You could unsolder them and clean that stuff up with acetone or scrape it off. If they have leaked, you will see the evidence underneath them. It is a good idea to get rid of this glue because it becomes conductive and corrosive.
