The fun part about a dowel pin is it is probably going to be hardened, which will make drilling, tapping, etc. considerably more difficult. You may be able to use a combination of methods--perhaps welding two nuts together, welding them to the pin, then using a slide hammer on a bolt threaded into the nuts. That way you'll get away from having to drill and/or tap it, which may require carbide or cobalt tooling. You may get lucky and the dowel will only be case-hardened, in which case another thing to try is drilling and tapping the "soft" center for a grease zerk and pumping grease into the hole, which will push out the dowel pin.
