Your hot chassis could just be a phantom voltage reading.  IE there isn't any 
real current potential between the B- and chassis ground.  Due to the very high 
impedance of the probe it shows a voltage potential due to the internal 
resistance of the probe being so high.  Try shunting the HV probe with a few 
megs of resistance and see what happens.
