Capacitor Identification Y5P and .01M

I have a circuit board from the mid 1980's that is from an Anilam CNC milling machine. I don't have any schematic for it.
There are several capacitors on it labelled Y5P on one side and .01M on the other (at least I assume they are capacitors, I am a hobbyist). The pins are about 1/4 inch apart.
I need to replace a few of them on this board but I have not been able to determine what those designations mean.
Please see pics.

What do the Y5P and .01M mean?
What is a suitable replacement for these.
Thank you...

.01M probably means 0.01 microfarad
Y5P is a tolerance and temperature characteristic

Y is for the low temperature extreme -30°C
5 is for the high temperature extreme+85°C
P is for the change in capacitance over the temperature range ±10%
