You'll be fine with the 6X5A. Don't toss the old one, though. As long as the tube isn't arcing, or weak, just put a drop or two of crazy glue into the crack and squeeze it shut with a couple of rubber bands. Leave the rubber bands on for a few hours, and you're fixed the problem, and now have a spare.
