you are wearing eye protection, at least. You don't want to
get squirted with assorted chemicals in your eyes.
I'll not bother then, other postings mention blocks of epoxy so there's no
point.
I wouldn't bother rebuilding them, they are just
line filters, and you can find them from many sources.
Some old PC power supplies, other dead equipment,
electronic supply houses, etc.
I paid more attention to the one I've fitted temporarily and it DOES have a
schematic on the top and is indeed a mains filter. Once I've made a metal
cover for the old hole nobody'll know the difference :) (The new filter is
much much smaller than the old one)
