Cleaning problem

So, my Stanwell Lovat is about 99% plugged in the stem/bowl area. I sealed both ends and wished with 99% IPA, after brushes and pipe cleaners failed, and a trickle comes out, but still essentially plugged. Also tried blowing my guts out from both ends and no joy.

Any suggestions?

It's a good pipe, so I'd hate to loose it,but it's unsmokeable as is. It has to be a solid bit of char that got lodged as tar wouldn't plug it like this.

I'm this close to getting a long, skinny drill bit and clearing it out, plus expanding the hole for better draw and easier future cleaning as getting a brush or pipe cleaner through it has always been a challenge.
