6L6 amp capacitor question.....

I don't have a schematic for this thing, nor can I find one, but I'm stuck on something and hope someone can help.

This is on an RCA MI-12202-B amplifier, tube complement is 6L6 x 2, 6N7 x 2, 6J7, 5Z3.

I'm recapping the amp, but there are caps on the 6L6s that I just can't read, they look like they were typed on with a typewriter before the cap was rolled, and the ink is almost totally worn off.

The caps are identical, and go across pins 3 and 6 of both of the 6L6s. Put one on my capacitor tester to see if I could get a reading on it, but it's reading 200 pF. Could that be right?
