I did remove both of them from the circuit for testing..

And you get '0' on a diode test between any combination of pins ?

That's correct.

They're stuffed in that case.

Can you buy replacements ? (original or newer models)

Would bad caps have caused them to fry ?

Could be.

Throw it away. At this point, not only will it cost more to replace
all the bad parts than buying a new spare supply, you're likely to
never repair it as many other things can blow, and if you fail to find even
a single one and replace it, they may all blow again instantly.
