If you mean the bulge at the top of the can, nearly every Philco aluminum can electrolytic I've ever seen was bulged at the top like that...including some that still had the liquid electrolyte inside, and were still operating with no hum. (I restuffed them anyway. I'm not taking any chances on using 70+ year old electrolytics in a radio that is going to be placed back into operation.)
