The large resistor on the left has 5 bands. Looks like yellow, violet, orange, white and a blue band to me- but that would mean it's a 47 giga ohm resistor?
I know that isn't right...
It's from the HV power supply in a Tektronix 575 curve tracer. Can someone help?
Thanks!

Which would imply it's most likely a capacitor? Have you measured it?The caps that look the same are marked with the capacitance and voltage.
That really looks like a capacitor. If you can draw enough of a schematic as as as that part and other resistors, we should be more sure of the value.

Tektronix did an excellent job with their documentation, you can tell what circuit by the component number (anything with an 800 number is for the CRT section, for example), each section is marked on the curve tracer, the tubes are all marked. The manual has a calibration and troubleshooting procedure. I wish Tektronix made audio gear!
Here's another cap that I can't tell what value: (Located near T601)
I see Red, red, orange, white, blue. My wife and son say it's orange, red, orange, white, blue.
After 60 years on the machine, it's difficult for me to see what colors the bands are so I can replace it. It measure 32 nF on my Fluke multimeter.
Any help is appreciated...

As a sanity check, I'm reading it as a 0.022uF, 600V cap.
That looks right. Are you using the Tek 575 manual that was linked previously to help identify parts? This one looks like C816.
