And when the old one fails short?

And that is the very core of this issue: economics. As a hobbyist, I'm
only fixing up my own stuff and if it goes wrong again in a couple of
years owing to the NOS parts I used having failed - I don't believe they
will for a moment but simply for the sake of argument - then it's no big
deal at all for me.
It's a totally different story for professional repairers who would be
foolish indeed to install anything other than good quality new parts from
a reputable supplier. Sure it costs more, but for a pro, it's well worth
it for all sorts of reasons.

I've got a box full of the oil & paper caps that come in cubiod cans and
they all tested fine (I have an awful lot of vintage spares here). Not so
sure about the tubular paper caps which I assume you're talking about,
though.

Can you kindly provide a link to the supplier you refer to who's able to
offer such truly extraordinary prices?

Electrolytic capacitors are on page 13.
 
I am a retail, over-the-counter customer. I do not know about their mail order policies, except the last page of the price list says "We Ship To USA & Canada Addresses Only."

If they work right at power up and then fail, that really DOES sound like
overheating. Yes, the thermal conductive stuff could dry out or lose
good thermal contact. The springy hold down should be fairly easy to
unhook, just play with it a bit. They should be able to be unhooked by
hand, you should not need tools.

Before you attempt to remove anything, make sure that's where your problem is. If you can pin down the time it takes for the port to fail and it's repeatable, then keep the chip in question cool with some freeze spray (or canned duster turned upside down). You don't have to keep a frost on it just keep it from getting really hot. If the time before failure extends (or stops failing) with the chip in question cooler, then yes, you could be experiencing thermal failure.
