Sure enough, there's a damaged 0.47 pF RF coupling cap. Not sure of the material but I'm guessing ceramic.

I seems the only modern replacement option is surface mount ceramic

Looks more like it has been ground away (to change the capacitance), maybe been that way from manufacturing since don't look like the connections were disturbed and the metal around it is not damaged.

Just thinking ?
