Yeah, I followed the schematic so it should be OK.
Speaking of schematics, I couldn't find this gooey looking thing on mine. I did a little research and discovered that it's a wavetrap added to later revisions. The bubbling goo appears to be old wax.
Here's the rebuilt metal box cap.
Call me crazy, but I don't like rust. So, I unmounted the power transformer and removed the clamshell covers.
Then, I removed the rust and sanded them a bit.
Here they are after some primer. Next up, some black enamel.
