The glass diode type are probably 5 volt dram bypass ceramic chip caps.
I remember seeing AT expansion memory boards of which the dram sockets
had a supply connection at either end with a glass type cap dropped in
the middle. They may have a number stamped on them like 103 or 104. The
green and pink body with colour bands are likely precision types often
only a few pF.
