But I do see what KK was getting at, that cap should have been as far away as possible from that joint, where as the cap is like rated 630v, or what ever, the voltage at that point is MUCH higher, and could very easily find a way to burn into the outer layer of the newer cap, where it did not of the older style one.

There is also a chance the wire to pin 7 is damaged ( carbonized) needs to be looked at closely.
Not only could this high voltage found a path to ground, but it may also have gone the other way to the bias on the other side of the 5w resistor, and hit your CRT, (not sure of how your set is wired), but via focus or the brightness or video output.
Thus I mentioned having to check stuff.
