I am pretty sure this is a stock 3.6R internal mid/tweeter crossover. The iron core inductor and two Magnepan made looking air cores. The midrange caps are some brand of polyester, which I know they used as an improvement over the old 50 uF Richey electrolytics used in older models.. The values of those polyesters should be 24/25 uF for each cap.
I do have a pair of 3.6Rs myself (later model using 30NF) and can double check those
soon to confirm.
The polypropylene Solen cap on the tweeter is what counts the most. That's better than the rest of the XO and better than what they used in older models. The older 3.3Rs and MGIIIa I used to have used an Elpac polyester cap on the tweeter.
