I'll measure some time and let you know.

I never said the chokes were damaged but we have all seen damage to the
zener which sticks right into the RF field plus other PS damage.
Parasitics IMO were not the culprit, poor component layout in the B+ and
bias circuits are more to blame.
No magic or space men...just simple, often overlooked details, that is
not a problem "most" of the time.
