In the simple solutions to complex problems department: it was a bad IC socket. The spring for pin 15 of the oscillator had snapped off. The whole socket actually disintegrated as I was removing it.
Thanks again for all the assistance.

I’ve got a solid signal on the related 4051 (U415) and op-amp (U421). Oddly, I’m seeing about +6V on pin 1 of U429 (the output of the 4016) which doesn’t appear on any other voice, so thinking I had a bad 4016 I swapped that. No change. Also tried swapping the 3372 for a known good one in case that 3372’s input was bad and Autotune couldn’t hear the oscillator. Again, no change.
