Two RCA 630TS questions

I've started recapping my 630TS and naturally you find interesting things along the way. Here's a photo for reference.

I shows the base of V128, the 5V4 reaction scanning tube, and L201, the horizontal linearity coil.

Question 1. It looks like there may have been arcing from the pin 2 lead to the chassis. Yes? I put a lick of tape around it until I finish recapping, but if I have to replace the lead, what's a good source?

Question 2. The wax on this coil and most others is bubbled. Anything to worry about? I don't care if it looks fugly. But if something needs to be done . . . what? I had an idea about putting a tinfoil cone shield around the coil and gently melting the wax with a heat gun. Or, maybe you could remove it and dip in a pot of melted wax, but I don't like to disturb fragile little coils unless really necessary.

Thanks!
