This thread will eventually become an article for the FP, but here is a record of what I'm doing for Flailboy's reference.
Flailboy took advantage of my recapping services and sent me his Epox board to work on.
Talk about putting crap on a motherboard... Almost all GSC 1500uF and 1000uF cans are leaking.
Caps are:
Sanyo 3300uF 6.3V (will not be replaced)
Teapo 1500uF 6.3V
GSC 1000uF, 1500uF 6.3V
Slideshow: (Damn I love my camera, a Sony DSC-H2!)

Replacements:
Chemicon LXZ and Sanyo OS-CON 560uF, 4V Conductive Polymer caps. You can see the leaky crap GSC and the replacements in this pic.
Phase: I

I merely replaced the blown caps to see if the board POST's. Success. It POST's.
