I also jotted down some notes about the TENEX file system:
https://gunkies.org/wiki/TENEX_file_system_layout
I don't know what the internals of the TOPS-20 file system look like,
but supposedly DEC rewrote or replaced the TENEX code. Among other
things, TOPS-20 supports subdirectories, but TENEX doesn't.

Did Tenex employ the Rad50 file naming scheme?
No, file names are in ASCII. Other PDP-10 operating systems use SIXBIT,
not RAD50.
