I would not be the first time that a pinball part was mislabeled.

Get a tap to rethread the hole, unplug the drill-press, mount the tap in the chuck, now re-tap turning the drillpress by hand - it will make sure that the new threads go in straight!

Old trick, but it works

Find the spot where all the holes line up but one, make an indexing mark on the base and bushing.

Using a rat tail file, elongate ONLY the one hole that does not line up.
