I don't know what you mean exactly, Lawrence, could you indicate which components are suspect? I can't see any caps or resistors that could be responsible
I wouldn't have expected 100 volts +ve on the control grid with the valve in place due to the diode action of the grid-cathode circuit, hence the mention of the cathode circuit, there's not a lot in it to check...resistance/continuity from cathode to chassis.
