Doug, I would just clamp a chunck of wood over the hole, scrap 1x6 or
plywood, whatever is handy, and cut through it with a metal-cutting hole
saw. The wood in the center will provide the pilot while cutting a 1" hole
through the wood, and then the 1" hole in the wood will guide the saw into
the metal.
I've actually done very nearly the same thing, except it was a flat plate
closer to 3/8" thick and I was able to get it in the drill press.
