Have you investigated the cause of the faults on the faulty tubes? If they appear to be okay through the glass maybe the fault is within the bakelite socket of the tube. I've repaired a couple of old tubes that had broken wires between the tube and pins due to the bakelite socket coming free from the tube glass. I've also repaired a dekatron tube that had the indexing lug break off by modeling the base in fusion360 and printing a replacement on a resin printer. I then used UV glue to put it all back together again. After soldering the wires to the pins of course. ;-)
