The hammer was definitely from a Ithaca 1911A1. The slide stop looks checkered to me, which is correct for Colt in that SN# range. Can you check the underside of the barrel? It should have some marking G, N, F & or something else.
If you want to retain the original grip bushing, you can try red Loctite. If the bushing is stuck with the grip panels, try using extractor like this.
