What chassis number is yours? If the filter choke is getting hot, and the breaker is tripping, I'd bet it's your filter caps, as long as the B+ diodes aren't shorted as you said. I'm puzzled by the breaker... Most early Zeniths I've worked on, have Belfuses. They made aftermarket breakers with Belfuse bases... Is that what yours is, or is it a factory breaker in the chassis? Also, you could check to see that the degaussing thermistor isn't shorted. Just unplug one side of the degaussing coil from the chassis.
