It took a lot of effort for the PO to drill through the pre-chamber plus the aluminum head, and a looong drill. The head is toasted. What was done was done, move on. It may be possible to remove the pre chamber and plug the hole with a set screw. But with no dis-respect to the PO, I would leave it to the professional.
I take no disrespect at all. I am a weekend warrior. From now on oil changes and brakes jobs is about it for me.

Yes. Lots of effort and stupidity. Once the GP broke, I should have stepped back, taken a break, done more research and re evaluate. Instead I went ultra aggressive with the drill.
