Looks like you got enough meat on there but be careful that you'll have sufficient clearance for the caliper on the headset. In the end i got round this by using a Sram caliper that has a sizeable spacer on the back and a less chunky body but it still rubs with some headsets.
And definitely use a bench drill.

One reason I was hesitant was this: unicrown where the tubes are proud of the steerer column, not leaving a huge amount of space to drill. I didn’t fancy DIYing and potentially wrecking it. Argos will charge me what I could probably get a new fork for.
