Working from memory, and this diagram, there is a couple holes in the 
rear of the gearbox to level the fluid in the gearbox and O/D. They're 
above the 'floor' of the gearbox case, which is also slanted forward. 
I'm guessing there would be a cup or more of fluid left in the gearbox 
if you don't remove its plug.

 On a 1967 Healey 3000 with O/D Iâ??m changing the oil in them . Can I just 
remove the large oil drain plug from the O/D and drain all the oil from the 
trans and O/D ? Or do I need to remove the separate drain plug from the 
transmission? 
       Thanks , Don
