One of the power supply filter caps must be dead so someone bridged it with that hacked in cap that fell off.

The thing you are calling a disk cap looks like the degaussing thermistor to me. It looks like on of the leads separated? they do exactly that when they fail. The set will usually work without that but the purity will never be right. Those are an easy find from Moyers.

I would replace that filter with another 100 at 450 in the same fashion if it were my set. The thing was working so no reason to risk screwing it up.

On second look it looks like the old thermistor fell apart and they soldered another one in. If the degaussing is working I would leave that thing alone. You may destroy it trying to desolder it and clean up the tacked in repairs. Those things are like little charcoal briquettes with wires cemented on the sides, touching it wrong will turn it to ash.
