Kudos to the AM crew for being on top of this. FRC teams are lucky to have so many dedicated suppliers!

You probably could ream the hole out, but I wouldn't risk causing damage to any presently undamaged parts. The reamer could put unnecessary stress onto the hole and possibly fracture it. Depending on 3D printer access I would print a new part with a stronger material and a slightly adjusted hole diameter. Just my advice.
