What does the chunk between the source and C6 do other than introducing noise and distortion? 😀

Yes, if you want to add noise and distortion there are cheaper ways of doing it. Silicon diodes can add distortion and zener diodes can add noise. Although I actually like well-designed valve amplifiers, I deplore the modern fashion of adding random valves to SS circuits in order to add "tube sound".
