It looks like C506 and C5102 are the only ones in that area. Which
other ones should I replace?

With this unit, shouldn't it power on when a tape is inserted?

I took an initial look at the caps, and none of them seemed to be
leaking or blown.

caps can fail and not be visibly bad.
unless you have an esr meter, it is simpler just to change them.
they're extremely cheap as components go. What you describe, the dead
condition, (if i read correctly) is a very common fault with vcrs
switch mode power supplies.
chnage the caps and post back.
