Is there a standard that is used for capacitor lead spacing on Madbean projects?

afaik, they are usually 5mm for film caps and 2.5 for electrolytics.

thanks for that m-Kresol, much appreciated.

are there exceptions like film caps with 2.5mm spacing?

I don't think so, ceramics are also 2.5 mm spacing.
