Excuse my ignorance, this is the first look for me on the inside of a tv. The large picture tube? in the center has the end glass nipple? broken off also I think. Should I consider even looking for a donor unit or well if I could locate one, its probably just as foul as this one. Looks like a fire hazzard to me at the moment, scared to plug it in after the guy told me it was smoking.

If the glass nipple on the CRT was broken off you'd expect to see the phosphor on the screen blown away. If it is broken, perhaps it was only some excess glass on the nipple.
