Generally spoken you can assume, that capacitors in the rectifying circuit are save at 600 Volt unless they are anti-rattle capacitors where you take 1000 V. ones. Further more capacitors that stand directly in the anode circuits of the tubes 400 - 450 V. is safe and in other places you may safely take 125 V. ones. Understanding of the different functions in the circuits makes it clear what values you have to take - it's a matter of common sense, that is plenty available in your case so to see.
