Doesn't matter much. Both do the same thing. My thinking is that you may have the two resistors and can wire it up pretty quickly. The capaciitive dropper you got to order and wait for the part to come in. Resistive dropper will generate a little heat (a lot less than a flaming hot BL42 tube) vs the cap won't. The 33ohm resistor you can play w/the value a bit something like 25-40 ohms will work. Either one you can wire up into an old octal socket to make in plug in like the original.
