Clock capacitor copy pasta since I see it on every post

Excellent find. there is a clock capicator issue with the original xbox that leaks and could damage your board.
you can read further on the original xbox reddit forum or do some research.

some people just break off the capicator and others have it replaced with one that wont leak. it is a common problem and almost guarenteed to eventually happen. it depends on the motherboard model if it needs to be removed or replaced.
excellent find and if you plan on keeping it, I would further investigate on the leaky capacitor issue.
