A neat way to identify a tube that may not have a legible # on it is to shine a LCD flashlight on the sides all around, frequently you can make out the #. Also seen people put it in the freezer for about 10 seconds and see if the # becomes visible with the moisture when you take it out. Maybe that may help id the RCA tube. Always best to check a schematic or tube layout for correct positions.
