If when the engine is in park and idling after going through the gears and the cvtf oil is between 35-45 Celsius, when the fill plug is cracked if a little bit of oil dribbles out is the reservoir at the sufficient level I ask because some of the cvt oil was drained by accident, consequently I do not know how much was removed.

That level should be fine as long as the vehicle was level.
