Status so far is that
- Glass and CRT cleaned beautifully.
- all electrolytics besides the filter caps have been replaced
- the 0.1 uF from grid of PL36 to ground is replaced (looked wonky and cracked open)
- PL36 is gassy, so will need a replacement for that.
- The 10n across the line cap has separated into two parts (on purpose?)
- The 4,7n cap marked with "23" in the schematic was disconnected. The 1k resistor marked with "22" was replaced with what looks like a 7-10W 1k power resistor. I reverted it back to follow the schematic, but I'm unsure what the purpose of that modification would do. Stability?

Questions:
1) The coil AT4008 comes in a to me quite strange form factor. It is enclosed in a metal tube with a plastic hex nut at the end and with a ~2cm wire coming out of the center of the hex nut. It looks as if it should go somewhere, or should it possibly just float in air? I have attached an image of it.

2) DY87 should be the same as DY86 except for a silicone grease covering for humid conditions - is this just your average silicone grease? When dusting off mine, I removed what might have been silicone grease on the outside.
