Which transformer is that? I think you may be referring to the unnecessary output transformer which was discussed up thread.
Yes that is the one.
With those hand written numbers I would say custom wound for an unknown original use.
That valve power supply choke will have far too much resistance to be in series with the power for a small transistor amp. They normally just have a single capacitor.
It looks like an abandoned project and may never have worked from the start.
