If you mean the photo right after my first post in this thread what I would say is, through the glare, I see “T shaped plates not what is commonly referred to as “round” plates. I didnt say that the picture I posted of a tube had other commonalities just that it was indicative of a “T” shaped plate.
Get a 6SN7 to loctal 7N7 adapter and use the 7N7 or 7AF7. These loctal tubes are the same as the better Sylvania 6SN7GT's so they have the same great 6SN7 sound.
7AF7 is a 6SN7 electrically and unique in the the heater requirement is 0.3 amp the same as a 12AU7.
These tubes are much less expensive than the 6SN7 or 6F8G. Be careful though as these tubes were updated to 6SN7GTB's after 1955 or so but the designation was not changed like with the 6SN7GT becoming the 6SN7GTB. The GTB style plates are almost always triangular looking.
Those are T plates. This tube I find incredibly detailed and somewhat on the bright side in my amp. Very nice. If you want warmer tone go for the round plate NU, they are rebranded by everyone, look for the structure to identify.
