Screen failure is the most common cause of blown 6V6s in my experience. Watch it doesn't take out the choke resistor while it's at it! This is also fairly common in 5E3s because there's no HT fuse usually and no way of making that resistor big enough to withstand a full-on screen short for any length of time. ie don't run the amp again until the valves are changed. The other 6V6 will be OK to keep as a spare.

Yes, if it's 6L6s you have in it. You don't need to worry about the matching at all, this is a very conservative circuit for 6L6s.
