OB-8 bridge rectifiers and heatsinks?

What is the correct part I should be looking for to replace the original W02M 5v bridge rectifier (and quite possibly the other 2)? Lots of discussion about beefing them up but I want something that will work in the same location. I also want to know what heatsink to use / size because I keep running into conflicting information about the sizes

I also wonder why the OB-8 service manual doesn't have a parts list... Yes, I know most of it can be found by schematic, but still...

I took a look at it tonight just to see what I was up against, and my rectifiers look like this:

Are these replacements?

Those caps are going, by the way... ;)
