Marantz 1090 Power Amp Transistor Replacement

Hello, all. I have a 1090 on the bench that had a failure in the power amp driver board. It appears Q718 shorted from the base to the emitter. The transistors in the path current flowed all seem to be effected, though Q718 is the only one with a dead short. I'm going to replace all the effected transistors and their compliments, if applicable. I'd like to make an updated (late)2022 substitution list for my purposes. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Here's what I have so far:
