Thanks for double checking me. It confused me because I was under the assumption that only bias caps have a positive ground, and these weren't labeled as bias caps. Right about here is where the gaps in my knowledge become chasms....

That's a weird looking electrolytic. I don't recall seeing one with a pair of leads at both ends like that.

Sure it's not on the yoke circuit? Or, just a weird bias?
The can likely isn't part of the electrical circuitry.
Trace your wires.

Simple.. Electircally, the two capacitors are not connected to the can.
What colors are the wires? Where do they connect?
