Personally I would use the brass drift on the high side of the outer race to see if you can knock it "straight" again and then continue with pressing it into the bore of the head stock. It's not an ideal situation but it may be the lesser of two evils based on it looks like it's more IN already than OUT. I would be more worried about damaging the spindle trying to pull it out again. The cast iron of the head stock will yield more easily than the steel in the spindle will.
