I know I would be drilling the cast over the slider although I would align one of the existing holes and drill just one new hole.

I need to drill 2 holes. The slider do not match the 2 holes on saw.
It only match one hole which is in center.

The center drill is short and stubby, so it won't/can't flex (or worse--break off in the hole) and mis-locate the pilot hole.
+1 on the center drill. Makes life much more precise.
