Just a thought, depending on how bad the damage is : Most hobby shops will
have 1/2" od thin-wall brass tubing for a few $$. If 15/32" will clean up
your shaft reasonably well, you could probably cut a length of brass to use
for the bushing.

Another way to approach this might be to grind a sharp corner onto the end
of the file, and rig a suitable support so it could be used like a lathe
tool. I have used this approach (before I got a lathe), and while the
result probably won't be pretty, it might be serviceable. Take your time
and make very light cuts.
