I have a Panamax Max 1000+ Surge Protector/Line Conditioner that died a few years ago with the overvoltage light which from googling basically says it's a known problem as they use low quality caps and replacing the caps will solve the problem. It basically looks like this inside:

The capacitors is as follows:
2 x 50v 4.7uF RGA AE 85C 5mmx13mm indicated by red arrow(s) at C11 and C14
1 x 35v 220uF RGA AE 85C 10mmx19mm indicated by blue arrow at C8
1 x 25v 22uF Panasonic SU 85C 5mmx11mm indicated by green arrow at C12
2 x 350v 10uF RGA AE 85C 10mmx25mm indicated by black arrow(s) at C9 and C18
What would be good options for replacement with long endurance as I should probably go for 105C caps?
I can see that for C11 and C14, the N/UCC KY would probably work, and for C12, perhaps the Panasonic FR 50v 22uF would work, what about for the others? Also, the resistor on the right hand side of the green arrow seems to have some cracks on the paint, how does one test the resistor with a Digital Multimeter to see if it's still good?
