Here's another from the 630TS. Different cap much deeper into the roll.

These caps showed as shorted in my vintage Solar tester.

I routinely test caps before opening them up. Ones that showed shorts or excessive leakage that would not reform often look like this.

I've had many that showed little leakage, but also very little capacitance. Gone open in other words. I see this more often than shorts.
