- [comment]: The groove is the most magnetic part, it means that the tool magnetised the stone. When material is heated and under magnetic field, the atoms are aligned and material becomes amagnet. Also vibrations help to achive that effect. That is how the magnets are made.

- [comments]: I have cored through granite with diamond bits.  That core dosent look like it got done with a power tool by a (known) machine.

What could be driven into the rock and not split it?

A hammer drill. There's also the possibility of softening the area to be drilled with acid, then performing a double-drilling action on it.

... acid, pouring, aliens and giants... We'll get to the bottom of this in a few millennia.

I do diamond core drilling and this doesn't look like it, straight lines through tells me that the tool was pushed down in to the rock and it was not rotating.

The straight line/marks could have also been made after the hole was drilled...by something being driven in (metal rods, think Roman sectional columns). One way to shed more light on it would be to see if the straight marks are over or under the circular cut marks. The biggest problem is not knowing what the initial function was...
