It appears to be an electrolytic cap, those usually puke out the electrolyte when they pop.

Replacing one isn't difficult, if you have the tools and training. If you have never soldered before probably not easy.

You'd need a pencil point soldering iron, NOT A GUN, some method to remove solder and a steady hand. Used to do that kind of thing all the time, but that was years ago.

Good to 85C operating range, which is about 185F, so I wouldn;t jump on that as the issue.

I'd get a meter that reads capacitance and check it myself.
