I didn't put any corona dope on those resistors when I replaced them in my 661-P, and it seemed to work normally. I did insulate their leads with shrink tubing and I took care to make all solder joints in that area very smooth.
If arcing is going on, you may be able to see it by turning on the set and observing that area in a completely dark room.
If anyone wants to look at the factory service manual, it's available here:
