As for pins 5 and 6 I'm getting -22V there which doesn't quite make any sense unless like I said C50 and C51 were bad because before C50 I've got ~145-150V there and but then on the other side of C50 I have a negative voltage of well under 100V.

What is your reasoning about C50 and C51 that makes you think they could make pins 5 and 6 go negative? Can capacitors reverse the polarity of DC voltages?
