Use Koshelev
You cannt be sure, so use the direct transliteration when addressing the person: `Koshelev' will be perfectly OK.

I mean sometimes nobody is sure if it's `e' or `ё', so you'd better use `e'.

Some Russian second names are not so obvious about where the accent is. The others like my own are pretty obvious: Semyonov, despite I transliterate it as "Semenov"

Those names are slightly different, unless I'm missing something.
