That would be 2.2 uF, 63 working volts.  It 
appears to have a polarity band at the right end, 
which would make it a normal polarized aluminum 
electrolytic.  However it's possible that it's 
non-polarized.  Look for plus or minus signs or a 
continuous band on the negative end.

The diodes are marked in your photo - check the 
specs on the web.  If the one with the 1N marking 
is a 1N4001-1N4007 you can substitute any higher 
numbered type in the series (the peak reverse 
voltages increase from 50V to 1000V through the 
series).  In fact all the ones except 4001 and 
4007 are "deprecated" now, so they may be 
going/have gone out of production.  The other 
diode with the ITT marking may be the same, have to look on the other side.

Yrs,
