I'm a little confused by which pin is the cathode pin. Looks like it's pin 8 on the data sheet. Pin 8 is connected to ground (via the multi cap mounting plate ground).
Here is the data sheet:

Pin 1 and 6 are not connected.
The only resistor is a 47k in series from pin 5 to the PCB.
Here are my PIN - Ground readings
1(n/c): n/a
2(Heater): 0v
3(Plate): 489v
4(grid 2): 489v
5(grid 1): -51v
6(n/c): n/a
7(Heater): 0v
8(Cathode and Beam plates): 0v
Both tubes were the same.
These are my only two tubes...the preamp section is solid sate.
Make any sense?
Thanks again,
Mike
