Nice work mate on the fender!
I use lots of FIRE to get the bush out rather than drilling!

may sound like a stupid question but i also have a 300tdi in my defender that someone has put in previous. looking at your pictures yours is sat much further forward than mine and your air in take can go behind, so why is mine so far back you couldnt even fit your hand behind? so my air intake is crammed out with a sharp bend that i wouldnt say is great
disco box has never been used on a defender. If your reverse is forwards then it's been mated to a LT77 gearbox. 300tdi defenders used R380 gearbox. Mine is a standard 300tdi and the engine is quite far back. But because it's original the air intake is on the drivers side wing.
Grind the head off the bolt and tap thru.
Why bother with a drill or a saw. Just get a thin pin drift and a thin cold chisel/tough screwdriver. and drive it between the outer sleeve and the arm. this forces the outer sleeve to deform inwards which reduces the diameter of the bush and it falls out. I have done a doz or so like this and never failed to get the bush out.
Cant quite see from the photos but have you done anything about the rust on the passenger side of the crossmember
Top thread, did you sort out the rusty holes on the rear cross member?
