Hi There,
First of all, I pray that your recovery goes very well and you are back on your feet soon!!
Regarding TR14, VR5 (Modulation adjustment) ties directly into the base of TR14 and onto 1 leg of R85. I would assume that TR14 is right next to VR5. If this were a newer multi-layer circuit board I would not be as confident but I feel good that VR5 would be your best reference point.

Was T14 just been clipped out or desoldered?
