The Plus/4 PSU is not repairable. It's filled with epoxy specifically to prevent repairs.
You can use a 64 PSU, but be sure to load-test it on a 64 before changing the plug. There's a reason PSUs on Ebay are no longer with their 64s, usually because the 64 went bad and the owner didn't realize a wonky PSU was the cause.
The PSU supplied with the 1764 RAM Expansion is more reliable. Ensure that it's marked "64/1764" as seen here: http://www.nightfallcrew.com/wp-content/gallery/commodore-c64-power-supply-for-reu-1764-repaired/IMG_6499.jpg
