I'd say pictures 1 and 3 are the tone correction capacitor which isn't shown on the circuit diagram. A 0.01uF 1000VDC polypropylene capacitor will be fine in that position.

Picture 2 shows C1 which needs to be a 0.01uF Class Y type. There is no need for this to be rated at 1000V. I think they're normally rated at 275VAC.

Picture 4 shows C61 which needs to be a 0.01uF Class X type. Once again I think these are rated at 275VAC.

Designations refer to the manufacturer's service sheet.
