For the future a member might try the old school trick of taking a length of 3/8 wood dowel cut a slit across the end and Incert a length of fine emery cloth. It would be easer to handle than a 1/2" drill.
Imho I would think the bushing should be kept as close to tolerance as possible. The input shaft is pretty long to not be properly supported at the fwd end and centered. Im no engineer but the thought of the clutch disk/disks running several thousands off center would bother me.

Use an Autogear pilot bushing and avoid all these issues.
