Is this an arcade monitor?

yes

Sounds like the beginnings of vertical foldover on the top of the screen. I know you say side but remember the monitor is rotated. Standard cap kit answer should take care of that.

Yep, first thing to try is usually reflowing solder on the chassis, then a cap kit. The cap kit is most likely the answer.
