Default Re: Westalite metal rectifier - data needed

I am servicing an Ekco SRG412 radiogram chassis,(also known as Ferranti SRG1090).
It is now working fine, but I am wondering before I put it back together, should I replace the FC124 bridge rectifier.
The HT is correct.
If it was a selenium rectifier I would replace, but are these "Metal oxide" rectifiers reliable and safe enough to leave in?
