I think it IS a jumper - I have had ones that looked similar (cream with one
black band) - but when a power supply fails, the obviously cooked components
aren't usually the ones that caused the problem in the first place.
Another possibility is that it is a (or was!) a low value inductance.
I've seen ones that looked like your mystery component.
Incidentally, if you are trying to fix a power supply, wear goggles - PSU
components often explode when unhappy.
