Like Stephen says, Tube, does it look ok from front? Can you get a meter on end of tube to test the heater, I think you should be able to take measurements without removing the tube socket. I guess it may be around 20 ohms others may know exactly, If you get a floating measurement many k ohms that could mean it is open circuit Most other parts are available or can be repaired. Another thought has anyone switched it on lately to try? If so watch out for charged capacitors.
