No reason not to go through the front...you've got plenty of space there and a hole will reinforce the vertical line that runs through the nose and tongue. You can just countersink your hole (a must to avoid cord wear n tear) and / or run a groove from this hole to the top edge (following that line) if you want your cord to sit flush against the surface of the carving.
