Me thinks 3 and 5 - look at the picture - the bottom two pins (holes on the "cookie") are the two pins. I'm not sure, and also not sure of the capacitance, but 47-100pF has been suggested. I mailed it to Tim un-opened, so I didn't have a chance to measure it with my LC Meter. The cap is actually in the little tab that sticks up from the bottom.

Edit: 3 and 5 are the plate and cathode, so it makes sense.

Edit 2: Looking at the schematic, there is a 56pf cap in the yoke. As the yoke was replaced, it may not have the correct values in the yoke, making the cookie do the job of the missing/too low of value cap in the yoke....



Cheers,
