Replacing a Polystyrene Capacitor

I am working on an Admiral 13in portable tv from 1968-69. It uses mostly Polystyrene clear capacitors. I am needing to replace one that looks bad and beat up. It is in the Horizontal AFC circuit. It comes off of pin 6 on the 8LT8.

It is capacitor C48 on the schematic below. The value is .0039 500v.

My question is can I use a film capacitor or do I need to use another Polystyrene or Mica?

Thanks!
