Some of these caps have an odd pattern at the top of what I'm usually used to seeing... Wondering if any of these look like they are bulging at all to anyone with more experience with these types of caps.

Visually these are all fine. Sanyo uses this kind of vent for example, and a number of chinese capacitors... If they are sanyo's they're likely ok, I actually couldn't see any branding on them. This board should predate the capacitor plague so unless you actually have problems, perhaps it isn't necessary to go full on recapping yet.

They do look ok and they do look like Sanyo, if they are the name should be right along the white NEG stripe...
