think the best solution

Fit a proper three-prong line. Make sure the "hot" or black line goes to the fuse. White to PT. Green grounded to chassis, right after entry into the chassis. I have not had hum issues, when doing this setup to the vintage amps I've worked on.

If the amp has an auxiliary AC socket, make sure wiring to it is correct.

I think the OP amp's hum is in the gain stages and/or PSU of the amp. Not AC wiring. At least, I'd rule these out, first. IMHO.
