The reservoir there is nothing more than what amounts to a bowl to hold some oil for when you start up the PTO/pulley, so that 1/2 quart should be about right, and I apologize for not suggesting you drain that before you got to changing out the tranny.
It's your call whether to drain and add the 1/2 quart back. My thinking is that, where you've run it with kerosene and with new oil, that would have mixed in with and then overflowed from what was in the reservoir when you changed out the tranny oil, so worst case is you'll have basically no more contaminant in the box than what was left in that 1/2 quart of dirty (wouldn't be a worry to me). What you drain out now may at this point look just like what's in the rest of the tranny, so a fresh 1/2 quart may not make much difference. It's a can't hurt/might help sort of thing, it's not a bad little exercise with no more cost than a half-quart of gear oil, and you'll be more familiar with your tractor when you're done.
The drain plug for the pulley is just above and to the right of where the PTO shaft passes through the casting. Should be a square-head pipe plug.
