The line filter was bad in mine too, so, many years ago, I replaced it with
a IEC320 with integral filtering.
It just fits the hole for the original filter, mounted from the inside.
I cannot remember who provided the two other pictures attached, but one
displays a R-390 back panel that is still original, the other gives the ID
for the RF deck tuning slugs.
To any useful purpose...

The line filter can go bad. In my case, it lost connection internally and I
had to rebuild it which it wasn't very easy The box is soldered shut so lots
of heavy iron needed to get it apart and back together. Hopefully yours is
still okay.
