I've had no issues with the toolmex holders that I have picked up in the US. If you already have CC_T inserts, I'd get a boring bar to take them. You will want to use an insert with a small radius to reduce cutting forces and reduce chatter.
The only problem I see here is that the ones I just looked at in my Toolmex catalog and also the one that Ed linked to is that the minimum bore size is more than you have specified. However, given the taper you may get away with it. I know I squeezed my 16mm bar into some tight places.
Could you open the hole up a bit more at the front? that would give you more room and it is metal you are going to have to remove anyway. Drilling is much faster then boring!
