Pin 1 must be grounded if a metal tube is used. BUT! if pin 1 is used as a convenient tie point for another component it must isolated or re-routed so pin 1 can be properly grounded. Thereafter, either type metal or glass should be just fine. Metal type is probably better anyway from standpoint of shielding and microphonic tendencies.
