The transformer in my Henry 3KA is a Triad transformer marked 70400 FDN
7442.

Obviously this could be the same transformer as yours IF we assume the
second number is irrelevant (maybe a serial or inventory/date number), and
only the first number is important.

Peter Dahl has an "exact replacement" listing for the 70400 Triad part and
here is a cut and paste:

HENRY 3K ER PLATE

EXACT REPLACEMENT, TRIAD P/N 70400

CORE) EI-250 X 5" 29GM6XRH   STYLE #) 04  E-I LAMINATED CORE

PR) 230 VAC 60 HZ HI-LO TAP


S1) 3800/2800 VAC @ 600MA CCS


DM) HT =  8.250 WT =  6.250 DT =  8.150 MD =  7.000 MW =  5.000

PRICE)    $495.00 Plus S&H FOB El Paso, TX    WEIGHT)   65  LBS

I personally suspect this may slightly under rate the transformer. Because
in my 3KA with this transformer the amp makes power in excess of what you
would expect for a 600ma CCS transformer.
