Help Stretch! W201 5 spd, 3-4 actuator, bright ideas needed

My 3-4 actuator arm for my W201 5spd loosened up for a second time, and I took the bolt out to put loktite on it. My mistake, as I can't get it back in in situ, the thread and hole through the actuator arm do not quite line up. This would surely be trivial with the transmission out and accessible, and some wiggle room but the tranny is presently installed.

I expect I'll be going through the tunnel with a hole saw or a 3/8 drill to gain suitable access unless someone has a bright idea.
