Oops! I guess I didn't provide enough information. I've attached a drawing that should help.
I would also rather do it in the lathe but how would one hold such a long piece in the 4-jaw without risk of the thing flying off requiring me to use my clean pair of underwear that I was reserving for my parting adventures?
As far as tolerances go, I can make the piece that will be a light press fit into the bore fit the size the bore ends up as long as the bore has little to no taper.
