I just got done with a 42-350 that had osc problems. I had to clean all the tube pins first. It uses a similar osc with the XXL(7A4) tube. I replaced the grid resistor and the 100pf cap going to the grid and now it works. I guess you just can't depend on mica caps like the old days. It sounds like you need some good pics of a working set to find out the placement of those wires. The osc needs some feedback from that gimmick to get it working right.
