Magnavox used them as well. The newer replacements from Magnavox looked different, but they were 648's.

I took a hammer to the porcelain tube dual caps I replaced. There was a small rubber band holding something together. It also had an oily film on the dielectric parts, so it must've some kind of an oil capacitor.
