If you have a multimeter you can always burn off the enamel and then check the connection. The tip of the headphone jack is left, the middle ring is right, the base ring is ground. Match up the contact points and then mark them.
Or you can follow the: Red = right, Green = left, Amber = ground, and mark them accordingly. I'm pretty sure that's more or less universal.
You can use a hand drill. If you're making the holes pretty big drill a pilot hole if the tip of the bigger bit doesn't have a good cutting surface
