The only .5 I see is before the vibrator, from A to ground, is that the one? Since this is a 6 volt set, anything about 10v is fine. 25v is probably a standard value. No problem with using 630v, but they will be much bigger than necessary.
For the 8uf, it depends on what B+ is, but you should be fine with 350v. The 33 output tube requires 180v, so I don't think things are much higher than that.
Edit - I see another .5 now, from the vibrator shield to ground. Same thing with it, low voltage but 630v is also fine.

The capacitor pictured is a .5 at 10 volts, but as sky noted anything over 10 volts is fine until size becomes an issue.
For electrolytic caps I usually just stock 450V for the majority of sets I work on. The newer ones are small enough to re-stuff even a lesser rated older capacitor if you're so inclined. Occasionally I'll need a higher voltage filter capacitor, but not very often. Again, as sky noted 350v is probably fine in this set, but if you have a stash that are rated a higher voltage feel free to use them if size permits.

In November when I first started recapping, I had a westinghouse with the same caps and I thought it was 1000v so I replaced all the 10v caps with 1000v caps........
Yeah they were marked 1200v. She is all back together but I will ge getting rid of it. Don't love it and have too many radios that I like more. Gonna start listing some on eBay and see what happens. Don't really care about the money and they will all be listed as is since I only recapped them and don't have the tools to check and tweek stuff. Then I will buy a nice tube checker, variac and signal generator. Then learn to use them lol
