I was wrong. I wasn't a blown capacitor. It was two blown resistors. And a blown capacitor. The smoke was from the resistors though, not the capacitor. The good news is that these are cheap parts; two 100 ohm resistors and a 5uf capacitor. I have no idea why they blew, but if i had to guess I'd say it was due to age. It should be an easy fix.

Here you can see the two blown resistors

Blown cap in the bottom of this picture. It's really hard to see.
