I think the links already posted will give you a pretty good idea of how to convert the values, (round off). As to the type, I'm partial to the brown rectangular caps made by Panasonic and the like. The yellow ones have the right cylindrical shape but the brown ones color makes it less obvious that they are newer replacements, at least when replacing the old wax covered caps. This link is one popular source, but I also like Mouser and Digikey.
