I just got around to changing my scupper to a stainless steel one, upon inspecting it and around the jet pumps it looks like there is another tiny drain coming from the clean out hatch. Do these have a problem with being brittle and breaking as well? Its right above the jet pump. Looks just like a scupper but around 3/4" in diameter.

The scupper is exposed to UV more than that one, but they're both plastic, and damage can occur where it's not noticeable. A metal fitting should remove the possibility of the fitting being a silent problem. In the grand scheme of things, it's $20 towards less stress

Well done! Was the removed plastic scupper brittle at all?

Replacing the plastic fittings at or near the water line is a good idea especially as time passes.
 
Curious if the scupper needs to be looked at on my 2012 242 LS. Where are they located on that model?
