Zeneth Transoceanic 5H40 (H500)
#2

You are right, diode should never be put in parallel. The selenium rect if it is good should be left in there and if it is not should be removed and replaced with a diode.
R21 will probably increase in value; you could search for info around as there are many of such topics discussed on the net where people had to do that.
If the cap was blown, it was a bad cap and this is it. I would put a fuse in series to keep it from happening again. Safety or not, a fuse is always a good idea.
