450rtt

picked up a 400 in parts for $500 everythings there but the guy stopped after he hacked the pivot bolt up. It's stuck in the motor now, i've got an extra swingarm and bolt so just need to get this damm thing out before i can reassemble.
Anybody know what size drill bit will safely get me in there without wrecking the engine bushing/sleeve. I've already drilled it out with a 5/16's to get a nice straight hole. I'm thinking a half inch bit might work? this thing will not beat out of there it's stuck good so I think drilling is my only option, just wondering if anybody knew the right size bit that would get through most of it so i can rip the rest of outer part of the bushings out. This one got fubared bigtime, but it's what i'm left with so I'm gonna deal with it, lol.
It's flush on the left side, but as you can see on the right side some of the collar is sticking out, the bolt is seized to the color all the way through the motor.
