Evilbay pricing shipped to Australia would be $50+ Based on another recent acquisition a 735A from the same era having a factory fitted IEC plug I think a change is sensible.

Always.......when it can be done neatly !
Sometimes an IEC socket with an inbuilt fuse or switch can be better to fully hide the OEM chassis punching.

The switch/fuse ones are good for a cover up ;D I made a template a while ago for my label printer helps keep it neat and also reduces scratches from doing the job. Catch bucket under it keeps the mess contained. Normally the nibbler it easy but the rear lip meant mainly filing to size and the dremel is to messy.
Cubdriver:
Nice job fitting that C14 connector!! Those PH-163 power cords are enough of a pain to find here in the US; i don't even want to think about trying to get them where you are.

Part of that reason for none locally is this one I removed is rated at 125V 15A :o more like 5-8A for safety so perhaps for gear being shipped to the sensible part of the mains voltage world ;) may have been fitted differently?
SeanB:
The caps you will be replacing are the wet tantalum types with rubber seals, as they will be very dry by now. Sad, as otherwise wet tantalum is a very good cap, just not the lower cost versions with a rubber bung seal. Good thing is that in most cases you can replace with a regular modern Nichicon or panasonic ultra low ESR capacitor of the same value and same voltage, and in almost all cases this will work.
