These are bulging from the middle of the cap down towards the board. Hard to tell in the photos, but if you look at them from the top down, they are definitely bulging. If that is glue, sure did not adhere very well. I can wiggle the caps in place and it sure seems like the only thing holding them in place is the solder connections. I will report back when I remove them from the board if that was a horrible glue job or if they were leaking. I just ordered the replacements from Mouser, along with some resistors for my Telebar.
