I have not tried this as a way to fix a leak in a scupper but I bet it would work.

Find a piece of plastic tubing that fits snugly into your scupper hole. rough up the plastic, (both the scupper and the tubing), and generously coat with sealant, such as Goop, and shove the tube into the scupper. When everything as set up, seal the top and bottom edges of the tubing to the hull, (depending on the plastic you use, you might even be able to weld the tube to the kayak).

Your scupper hole would be smaller but it would be stronger and should not leak.

Just a thought.
