I wouldn't want to use a larger size. I have had similar situations arise in the past, although not on a razor. What i suggest is that you get some .100" or .125" aluminum solid rod. Take the razor and your calipers to the hobby store so you can judge the best fit. While you're there, also get some 3/32 brass tubing.
You may need to cut about 2 inches of rod off, chuck it in a drill motor, and sand it down a little to a smooth sliding fit in the hole. Then cut a piece about 2 mm longer than the thickness of the tang, insert it, and peen both sides with a flat hammer and anvil, or sandwich it between two pieces of 1/4" flat steel and hammer. The aluminum will peen out to fill the hole tightly.
Then, grind any leftover aluminum down flat on each side. Drill a 3/32 hole for the bushing, and you're ready for the 0-80 screw or a 1/16 brass rod pin.
