2 ohm ot.
i've read that zinky did this intentionally to introduce a bit of compression into the tone.

No speaker is EVER exactly the labelled ohms and neither is any OT going to be exact in impedance (given different wall voltages, tube tolerances, etc).
I wouldn't worry one bit about any mismatches... afterall every amp out there is never 100% matched as it is.
Next time you get a speaker, measure it.
For instance my Eminence Tonkerlite is labelled at 8 ohms, buit reads at 7.8ohms. My Jensen Neo 12-100 is labelled 8 ohms but is 7.1 ohms. My "8 ohm" Jensen RI P15N is actually 6 ohms...
