A #54 drill will give you the correct size hole.  Drill almost
completely through with a larger drill, then go from the other end
with the #54.  I can make you one in brass if you need - pmail me.

The restrictor up at the throttle body is harder - the hole is only
.006, half the size of a #80 drill.  To make that at home I think
would involve molding epoxy around a .006 wire.  But it's still
available - 025 129 420.

These numbers are According To Bentley.
