Also, the Philco service data seems to show it better on the schematic in regards to the 6.3 volt line than the Sams does.
Thanks !

There seems to be some confusion regarding the Sams. The cap in question is C222 in the Sams, not C204. They mislabeled it on page 5.

It's a 1,000 pF ceramic feed-through cap. That's a type of cap commonly used to feed signals and power into a shielded box like a tuner.

Something like this may work if you need to replace it.
