The big bleeder resistor used in the B+ supply was open in my 3118B, I looked under the chassis recently and I apparently removed it as some point. It hasn't been messed with that much, but it is not as minty as your chassis with assorted rust spots. But it's a Canadian model 3118B so it has a different cabinet then an American 118B, in fact it looks related to the 118MX cabinet style wise.
