Acts like the tube heater (the part that lights up) is burned out. Max plate voltage for the 6K7 isn't anywhere near 430v more like 300v. Make sure pin 8 of the 6F6 is grounded and you should see some -voltage on pin 5 of the 6F6 too. About -10 to -15v.

The tube does light up. Could a loose pin connector explain the wonky voltages?
