Does resistor 47 get hot at all? if you had a B+ short, the current would also be passing through it and it would also get at least warm.
You can confirm proper polarity by connecting your DVM across the cap in question, with probe polarity matching the cap marking. Then slowly turn up the variac and watch if the voltage goes positive or negative.
