Default power supply electronics query

These Are 10000PF Capacatiors (103) used as snubbers and depending on what
is connected to the Darlington configuration they may be film but my guess
would be paper to prevent power up surges that would POP the Collector
Emitter junctions since they are rated for 630 Volts in 200 VDC supply.
Paper caps would be hard to find these days but you can use a Mylar film
type to replace them. If they went more than likely your Darlingtons were
cooked. Check the surrounding circuitry there was a reason they cooked. Good
Luck.

Need some help identifying several power supply capacitors that are blown,
inside a 200V DC power supply. The caps are axial (Poly film?) and are
labeled 103KV 630.

What are these? They are mounted across what appears to be a darlington
power transistor.
