The goo I think is some kind of silicone or other sealant that has disintegrated and ran down the side of the CRT, I think it was originally applied around the HV connector. Have seen this on other similar Zenith sets.
The standard 120V voltage tester type of neon lamp?

Glad to hear that goo might belong there.
