If the inside rim has broken off from corrosion, it's reasonable that the other side will in short time.

Don't do a band-aid repair when the real repair is easy and doesn't take long, at all. Chisel the old tube out, pop a new tube in. Check out TH Marine's website - they have nice plastic, 2-piece units that zip together.

I had replaced the brass drain tubes twice on my 2003 Express 330. Then my repair facility suggested using thick wall fiberglass tubing. I'll never have to worry about changing the drain tubes again! Whatever you decide to do, compromised drain tubes must be replaced to prevent transom rot.
