VERY likely the silicons will not work (or not work well), as any biasing or AGC probably will be wrong, but not too expensive to try just in case.
Don't understand your test (reading volts rather than ohms)? Some ohmmeters may apply too much voltage for testing b-e junction of germaniums, I think.
