Is there anyway to tell with top or iostat which process is hogging all the disk I/O?
No, you need systemtap for this.
http://sourceware.org/systemtap/wiki/ScriptsTools has examples.
Remember, you'd also need the corresponding kernel-debuginfo package for your running kernel which you can get from http://debuginfo.centos.org/.
