SCA-35 PT failure

Which windings failed on these transformers? Might it have been
possible that there was a downstream circuit issue that caused early death?

On another note, I had a Toroid of Maryland tube amp power transformer
toroid fail after 3 years of faithful use. The primary winding opened up. The failure happened while I was listening to music on an amp that has no problems and only lightly loads the toroid transformer.

I guess these failures can happen anytime.
