42-345 Resistors
#2

You seem to have gotten the values right.
Yes the damage is consistent with a wrong polarity of the first rectifier filter.

Now you have to change the cap, probably the tube also.
If possible, check the rest.

Remember: the Cathode (K) of rectifier leads to Positive opf the cap, and vice versa.

Now.
You have a few other caps, including some tubular paper caps and the big tubular electrolytic.
They all have to go.
Do not leave them in. If you don't restuff the caps for looks, just get some yellow axial capacitors and use them according to their values.
The #61 caps 0.1uF have to be Y-rated safety type.
If exist, Mica capacitor (rectangular brown, usually) should not be touched, and preferably not soldered/touched up.

As for the resistors, for the 220 ohms use at least 2W-rated one. For 68 Ohm use at least 0.5W.
For 220K and 1M the power rating is not critical, 1/4W is plenty, but for convenient soldering I prefer at least 1/2W, and usually use 1W.

I also took the liberty of correcting your thread name from " 32-345 Resistors" to 42-345, as it seems to be your radio.
