The other component that failed was a RIFA 40/085/56 GPC metallised film capacitor. I think the board reference is C37. Or the component is next to C37.Before I turned on the Macintosh I checked the analog board to assess its condition. I noticed that the film capacitor's case was cracked in places.

Once the Macintosh was turned on the capacitor exploded!
You can actually still buy the identical filter capacitors. There are 3 on the board and are from Kemet. Here are the part numbers and correct values for the International 240 Volts Analog board.

The filter capacitors have the following values:

-2x 4700pf 250Vac - Kemet PME271Y447MR30

-1x 0.47uf 250vac - Kemet PME271M647KR30
