You don't need a diamond bit. High speed steel will do as long as you drill slow (about 400 rpm) and keep the tip lubricated with cutting oil.

What drill bits to use on cast iron?

I'm no expert, but broke off 1 old brass bolt flush in the cast iron flange of a toilet drain- I then used a metal bit to drill holes for the toilet riser/extender thing to attach to. This all stemmed from a remodel and having mounting bolts too short for the new bowl. The mason bit i tried didn't work as well as the metal bit. I started out small and worked my way up in size.
