RCA 56X3 cap?
#2

The copy is pretty awful but I think you'll be OK. The only two I can think of that may require a high voltage rating would be at the plate of the output tube and maybe the plate of the rectifier. Generally 630v should be fine and have used them many times there with out an issue.

ps on the output tube if the cap goes from the plate to ground you can rewire the ground side to connect to the screen grid. This will drop the volt across that cap. You also can play with the value to increase amount of highs you hear from the speaker. The smaller the cap the more high it will pass. Start with a .002 and go up from there.
Enjoy
