The number is the same as the one to the right (I mistakenly typed
left in my first post - damn dyslexia) - which is 223 above 3KV.
Should I just replace it or use a higher capacity part?  All the
replacement caps are higher capacity than the originals.  Also my
buddy is over and he's pretty pessimistic.
