Here are some close-ups of the area. The 2 panels on the front are definitely walnut but they are undamaged. The damaged area is to the left of the left-most walnut panel. In the photos below the missing piece is on the front of the cabinet. It is flat in that area just like the 2 front panels. In the last photo I'm holding a piece of it up and away from the cabinet. I'm assuming that the entire dark-toned front section of the radio is veneered. Since the coloring is so dark in there anyways it probably won't make much of a difference what type of veneer was used originally. I was just wondering if anyone knew for sure what type of veneer it was originally.
