Glad it was something simple and inexpensive 
My gut feeling is that the info you're working from has a typo - because the readings you're getting are what I would expect... there is no path I can see to measure resistance from the negative lead of that cap to the plate of the output tube other than through the electrolytic itself.
Regarding hum - 40uF is the max rated smoothing cap for the 35Z5 - so you could try increasing C101A to 40 if you can find that value... alternatively have you moved any of the wiring or component placements?
Cheers

There are no personal problems that can't be overcome with the liberal application of high explosives
