I think it's only a cataract, not a broken neck. The socket looks to be plugged into the end of the CRT where it goes. A "blow hole" looks more like a big hole in the center of the tube more than around the sides. Cataract removal isn't too much trouble. If the tube checks good, it's worth the effort. I'd definitely grab it if I were in driving distance.
