I might have to do that (not sure of silicon as the effort to insert a tube is sizable and it might not hold) but, well, I do have a socket.

I do not want to buy a whole chassis for parts, and I in fact do have a whole chassis (from a grandfather clock) that seems to be good, so I am not crazy about destroying it - I might build another 70 out of it.

I saw a 6-pin socket yesterday...need a 5-pin one.
