  I'm trying to reverse engineer a board that I have
and I've bumped into
 a component that I don't understand the markings on.  If you would like
 to help, a picture can be found here:

That is a Tanatalum bead capacitor, 1uF 35V Dc rating, the + is for the +ve 
lead, which is a different length to the -ve lead when the component is new 
before soldering.

104 is 10 +0000 pf, 100,000 pf, 0.1uF, voltage rating unknown but probably 
in the 50Vdc-63Vac range.

A common pairing for bulk decoupling on power lines or planes.
