Take some good pictures of it and I will let you know. I can tell by the soldering and the brand of the caps used in it. The clearer the better

I should have thought of this sooner.

I have enclosed a photo of my NTSC A1200 near the RF modulator. I can see that my caps have different values, although there are similar in appearance. This is from a Rev 1D.3 board.

Am I already recapped?

Same values, just diffrent voltage. Its okay for voltage to be a bit higher or lower, as long as its within the range still. The uF  no, needs to be the same. You look to have the stock caps in an NTSC model too. The Shoei ones are at least.
