I had a good day's plumbing yesterday which I enjoyed but my back didn't. It still hasn't forgiven me today so I haven't been able to spend long bending over my radio. I have, however, checked a few things.
C46 definitely looks like it's been getting hot. However, it's 18 pF and the data makes a point of saying it's a 10% one and the nearest preferred value (preferred by whom anyway?) is 22pF and I'd jut like to check if this will be near enough before ordering one.
I'll also swap C44 and C45 as per Steve P's suggestion and C43 as it's a Hunt's. Besides that R22 is a bit high at 26KΩ. I may as well change the smoothies as well for what they'll cost.
If this lot doesn't work it'll be a valve. If it does come to that would this be suitable:

As always, thanks for your help.
All the best
Joe.
