The hum has been resolved.  Thanks to John (MrFixr55).  He was a huge help!  
Turns out I had the negative leads on caps 21A and 21B switched (Check my drawing at the beginning of the thread). The negative lead of 21B (the one that goes to the RECT 7Y4) should go to the 4th terminal from the left of resistor 77.
Once I made that switch the hum was gone.

Thanks again John!
