I am getting ready to do the keeley seeing eye and ultra mod to my ds1 but the pdf file i have doesnt list the voltage of the capacitors that i should be using any advice?  Also what is the difference between a metal film cap and a metal film box cap?

As long as you use something higher than the voltage you're using to power the circuit, you should always be fine...as long as you're not boosting the voltage somehow. If that's the case, then you need to take the boost into account.

You'd know if you were boosting the voltage ;)

so anything over 9 or 18 volts (usually 9)?
