38-12 Chassis confusion
#2

Fuse is not original to the radio, it was installed by a restorer. The radio was restored likely in 50-s or 60-s - the black tubular capacitors are from that era.
Scorched place might be a poorly insulated wire splice touching the chassis.

If you want to restore to the original state - you have to trace and compare to the schematic. It is not difficult as the AC power part is simple.

Since you have the fuse, might as well keep it and wire it appropriately.

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.
