Also make sure you change out that bakelite cap with color bands...these have paper inside and are very prone to shorts, this one looks like it couples the circuit ground to the chassis....it can short even with power switched off and couple 110 volt ac to the chassis.
You can repair IF transformers with cap leakage (though that doesn't seem like the problem here) you just remove the mica sheets, shorten/adjust the internal leads to avoid shorts, adding black tape if required, then add new 80-100 pf caps on the terminals under the chassis.
