Drawing a dimple

Hi

I was wondering if someone could help me with a drawing issue on how to create a dimple on an aluminum tube. I have a .200 hole going through the tube. There are two dimples 180 degrees apart and about 1/2 inch in diameter where a round head screw with a nut and washer could sit nicely. I could extrude through the side with a half round sketch but this part has more detail. It looks like it had probably been punched in with a die so more round and smooth surface coming up from the hole. Using SW 2010.

Can someone please assist me in drawing the dimple. I don't have much surfacing experience.

Regards,
Jeff
