Steel is best for hub DIY, but as I have learned working on a MTB circa early 90's, not all dropouts are built alike and what worked for a lightweight wheel may get torn up by the hub. If you have any desire to keep your bike 'complete' (all original parts)... you may want to replace the fork, especially if you don't trust the dropouts. From the photos, that fork may be something like this but make sure to measure the steerer tube diameter first.
