Questions re: Tuner Dial Lamp(s), R-300 Receiver

Working on a lovely (cosmetics at least) little Yamaha R-300 receiver. I believe that this was the first Yamaha line of receivers after the CR- series, which would make it from the early 1980s.

For whatever reason, a previous owner cut the leads for the Tuner Dial lamp (marked on the board as PL301) at the board, and removed lamp and lamp housing.

My questions:
1. Is there just the one lamp, at the left edge, to illuminate the tuner dial?
2. The Service Manual for the R-500 is available on-line, but not the R-300. Is the tuner dial lamp 28V 100mA, as for the R-500? If not, what is the rating for the R-300 lamp?
3. Was there a coloured lamp cover over the bulb, or was it nekkid?

Thanks for any help...

Hey saw your post and thought I could help. There is only one bulb to illuminate the entire dial. There is a green rubber cover over the bulb. It seems to be a 28v bulb, 0.1 amps. Mine is imprinted "STANLEY 28V0.1A."

Any idea where to get a new one of these?
