The deed is done with the fork ends, and everything is sitting straight. Bear in mind 5/16” is 7.938mm, so we’re only talking a very small amount of material being removed to take it up to ~8mm for a modern axle.
Chainring should arrive today and some fabulous ‘Velo’ black cork grips are also due to arrive. I’ve heard mixed things about these, but worth a crack for £6. If they’re guff, I’ll lump for some from Velo Orange.

My bad, I misread the issue as a brake bolt hole thing. I would not touch the fork ends. I saw someone take a Dremel to some frame dropouts once and they made a right mess.
