Dropped the flywheel off at a reputable shop last night, they are going to
weld/fill the hold, then re-drill it for the proper size pilot bearing.
Given the damage didn't go the entire depth, they felt they could clean out
the bad stuff but leave the good half and use that as the guide for the
fill-n-drill.

Should know in a couple of days how it turns out.

Take to shop and have them bore out and press in a sleeve.  I don't
think you would need a rebalance, but get one if it isn't expensive.
Does the pilot bearing fit into the flywheel or crank?
I haven't yet had a Miata apart for a clutch.
