Had something similar happen with my RCA 9-T-246. Paper cap went BANG smoked and leaked wax.....Boy was I scrambling for the power switch on that one.

Usually the first wax paper caps to pop are the ones fron the 120 volt line to ground. These must be replaced along with the filters and coupling cap on the G1 of the audio output tube.
