Hole is very small. Like a pin prick. And it seems pretty certain that it got paint in there. I'm mates with a framebuilder or two and was told it wasn't a problem.
It did piss me off, though, that All City would let that out of the door twice (the first frame had the same issue, and was exchanged - couldn't face doing it a second time as I'd already reamed/faced BB and headset twice...).
Basically the frame is brand new. As is headset. It was bought to replace my old Fuji which cracked, but I was riding less fixed by that time and I just never gelled with this bike. Time for it to go to someone who isn't yet ready to ride sensible hybrids everywhere...
If you're unsure on colour, come take a look. It's quite fun actually. Did have a macho driver tell me to "fuck off and ride my girl's bike" once, which made me smile.
