 But Micamold did make real mica capacitors, so the name alone isn't a red flag for replacement. Most of us know that but I bring it up for the benefit of possibly new restorers reading the thread.

 I recently rebuilt an NC-57 for a kid. 
Every single micamold cap in that radio were so leaky they were more like bad resistors than capacitors.
I literally hate those things.
 They certainly are not mica-anything: they are squashed poorly-made paper caps.
