Wax could be lost due to some bad components overloading the transformer, which might not necessarily be the case if all is recapped/retubed.
The transformer might still be OK.
The fact that the was escaped may or may not affect the function; the only way to find out is to test it. You could use a megaohmmeter to check for the leakage between the windings and the case, and plain voltage measurement and then loading for checking how it handles the load.

People who do not drink, do not smoke, do not eat red meat will one day feel really stupid lying there and dying from nothing.
