You are correct in assuming that if the insulator bezel around the front of the crt is defective you could get a jolt if you are grounded if the front trim ring around the safety glass is touched. To check if you have a problem, simply take an insulated wire and ground one end to the chassis and then touch the other end to the metal trim around the front of the set. If the metal trim is "live" you will get arcing to the wire.

No arcing=you are probably OK
