How do you correctly display a diameter dimension in a view [say like a detail view] where neither the opposite projected line/surface nor the center line are visible?
 
I have used a double arrowhead to get the point across.
I have no idea if that's standards-compliant.

You don't.

Put the dimension where the feature being dimensioned is unambiguously shown.
