Default AVO Dummy aerials

I have an AVO All Wave Oscillator, and was wondering if the capacitor in the dummy aerial is the sort that should be replaced ?

This is the question. It's a very small one so probably not.

From memory (never entirely reliable) this should be OK. It is a small value component and not waxed paper.
