Most any HC-6/U crystal will 'work' in the Drakes. The oscillation may or may not be close to the marked frequency, depending upon the specifications the crystal was originally designed for, and it's age. But most will be within 5 - 10 khz, unless they are fifth overtone or some other weird cut.

Simplest is to plug it in, peak the preselector where it 'should' be (marked frequency minus 11.1 MHz) and see where you find the marker. It won't hurt anything if it doesn't work!
