NEED HELP WITH A MIRAGE M1 CROSSOVER---- IDENTIFYING WHAT CAPACITORS GO TO WHAT DRIVERS

I have a pair of Mirage M1's and one of the caps went bad. Being that the caps are over 25 years old, I thought it best to replace all of them. I decided I would like to use some mundorf MKP Caps for the bass drivers and the midranges, and maybe some Jansen z superior or some Obbligato Premium film caps for the tweeters. 
Unfortunately I am not sure what caps directly correspond to what drivers. Wondering if someone could PLEASE, Help me to figure out what caps go to what drivers. SEE ENCLOSED PICTURE

I have tried both the Jantzen Silver Z cap and the Mundorf Supreme S/G/O.

I went with all Mundorf Supreme S/G/O caps.

The Jantzen are very good but can be a little too harsh, but that would depend on your crossover point. I am crossing my ribbon tweeters over at 2000Hz which really revealed the harshness in the Jantzens.
