Yes indeed that one looks like it might be bad, could be maybe? - Suggest you replace them both plus the one I draw attention to below and you will be good to go for a long time to come. On second look your main input fuse is toast! that cap might be the issue however suggest you check out the FET's before applying power unless you want fire and flame. Your unit looks similar to several I have seen that got plugged into a 240Vac source - not a good result the input side caps go up in smoke the FET's short etc......

I have found that the 10ufd cap to the left of the bleeder resisters on the small vertical PCB there in the corner has been a major failure item. A low ESR cap is required in that location.
To answer your question - None I'm aware of NOT even the highly promoted PD series which uses the lowest cost caps they can source - seen dozens of them most with Cap problems
Additionally replace the smaller one on the main PCB board right by those hot bleeder resisters
