I have the chassis at home, will look tonite, but meantime:

According to the sch one of its terminals is grounded. Trace the wire that goes from 6A7 grid cap to the tuning cap. This is the terminal that is insulated from the chassis. Whatever part of cap (rotor or stator) it goes to, the OTHER one is supposed to be grounded to the chassis.
People who do not drink, do not smoke, do not eat red meat will one day feel really stupid lying there and dying from nothing.
