One of my sets has a tuner with 12AT7, 6AG5 & 6BH6, while the other has 6C5, 6AG5 & 6BH6 crossed-out in pencil and 6AG5 written in. I marked my pictures to indicate which chassis they are from.

This chassis was available for over 2 years under at least 4 brands and probably more, so production changes are expected.
Your former recapper must have lengthened the wires, because the factory wires are too short to get a full view of the underside.

Also below are photos illustrating the chassis with the 6C5 and 12AT7 tuners.
If you or anyone wants a higher resolution copy of these, just shoot me an email, as VK compresses photos. If you need see a better view of the underside of the three tube sub-chassis, I'll do it, but it may take a week or so, as I have to clear my workbench first to unsolder and mark the seven leads.
Sorry for the rant, but I've gotta find a source for traditional lamps. These pigtails make color codes hard to read and give you a completely different color when taking two photographs shot seconds apart, without touching the lights.
