Not sure what to tell you about the 6X5's but some had a problem shorting and taking out the power transformer when this happened. If me, I would make sure and fuse them. Maybe someone else can tell you which ones to use that weren't susceptable to shorts.

They have the same electrical spec- only difference is packaging, metal (6X5) or glass bulb shape (G, GT). Use whatever suits your taste.

:they said i should fuse this tube what pin and what size fuse

You can fuse the B+ bus, the AC line, or both. If you fuse the AC line, a 1 amp fuse should be adequate; half an amp on B+.

Not fusing B+ won't lead to a safety issue; but it might save your 6X5 tube from self-destructing if something on B+ (such as a filter cap) ever shorts to ground.

Fusing the AC line input is always a good idea. If something shorts out the AC line inside the radio, it can cause a fire before the (usually high-current) breaker in the house service panel trips.
