There is a limit imposed by the valve rectifier and varies with type. The rectifier in your radio has a stipulated maximum of 8uF but that value is no longer a standard value. I reckon (unless someone disagrees) that a 10uF will be ok but no higher. You could buy 3 off, use one for C38 and two in parallel (20uF) for C37.
