Accidentally drilled into 1/2in copper pipe What is the best way to fix this?
You shut the water off, then drain the water out of the pipe for at least a foot from the hole you made. Then cut the pipe at the hole you made, and sand the ends of the pipe throughly until the copper is bright. Then take a half inch coupling and solder it to join the pipe back together. From the looks of it you will need to get rid of some of that wood, and use a piece of fire blanket to keep From burning your house down. If you return with ‘how do I solder’ the answer is to ignore my comment and call a plumber. More on reddit.com

temporarily, if access around whole pipe is possible, you could use some plumbers tape and a hose clamp. ... Temporarily – yeah it might I've never tried, no way would i rely on it permanently though. I've also heard of people using a piece of rubber wrapped around the pin hole and clamped with hose clamps as a temporary fix, or a more permanent DIY solution would be if you have a copper cutter and a hardware store nearby you can grab a "Sharkbite" slip coupling which are good for fixing small sections of copper pipe.

July 15, 2023 - Even if a get a good price to fix the leaking pipes is re-fluxing them necessary or could some epoxy putty or pipe wrap seal tape be ok? I'll probably be selling the property in about 2 to 4 years so don't want to spend lots of money on expensive repairs, if there's something cheaper I can do now that will last a few years until the property is sold. I found this web page which lists a few alternatives to solder: https://sylmasta.com/copper-pipe-rep...orking order.

That's a bad spot to have a leak. That could have been caused by too much heat from a torch or excess acid flux. You might be able to cut the 1 1/4" pipe on the other side of the support and heat the joint going into the "y" and remove the piece of pipe. Then clean out all the old solder by heating up the pipe and wiping out solder. Use emery paper to clean the surface down to the copper. Get a new piece of pipe and a repair coupling. Slide the repair coupling on the old pipe after fluxing and then slide the pipe into the "Y" after applying the flux. Flux the new pipe and slide the repair coupling into place. Now sweat the "Y" and the repair coupling. You should be good to go.

While there are various possible causes (aside from not cleaning acid flux properly, the one that comes to mind in that location is improper/insufficient support causing a bending force on the pipe from the Y junction) I personally would replace as much as possible with PVC (and take your copper to the scrapyard.)

If you are prone to consider that going overboard, please check the pH of your water. If it's acid, that's not going overboard, it's saving you future hassle as more places rot through, one by one, and then leak until you notice them.

Soldering copper supply pipe is a relatively easy skill, though many folks these days seem daunted by it. Personally, I can solder them just fine but I won't be buying new ones in the age of PEX, especially with the price of copper so high. Drain pipe, simply due to the size, is much more difficult to solder well, especially with typical homeowner torches. PVC is an order of magnitude easier to do right, and it is unaffected by water chemistry.

Additionally, new copper pipe and fittings in drain pipe sizes are painfully expensive, especially when you may need to buy 10 feet even if you only need 6 inches of pipe.

Do NOT throw out copper scrap, it will probably pay for your whole replacement pipe and then some.
