Looks like this photo:
I'm no expert but, I would try to find one made in the US. Gossip perhaps but I've read capacitors from China do not last as long. Interesting that it says castor oil filled. Castor oil is an organic oil from castor plant seeds. I'm not sure you can still buy oil filled capacitors. They do or did last longer than dielectric capacitors.
