6AU6= UK-EF94-Mullard --B7G base (UK designation ) --that's all supposing you can get a genuine Mullard tube ?
PS- US "9 pin mini has a UK designation of B9A --its called the -
Pro Electron type nomenclature system for receiving and amplifying valves .

Different amp design so not too worried if using something different. I put this in just to show the LTP bit. There's loads of 6AU6WC available.

You might try to connect the EF 184's as triode; apart from this I would also get rid of the input capacitor which is superfluous.
6LQ8 is my bet.....i mean a 6bn11 if you want a pentode pentode ltp..
just wondering, why do you need all that gain?

Lower gain to EF184 is E83F (mu=40)
Great tube, and one of the tube with least noise.
Here is E83F triode curves:

Returning to the schematic I saw it contains two drawing errors. The polarity of voltage sources V2 and V4 are reversed providing the fase splitter and the power tubes a positive instead of a negative voltage. This would make the powertubes blush a little.
