You misunderstand the way Exim works. That call to Exim does not use
TCP/IP at all. No port is involved. The daemon is not involved. It runs
a completely new exim process and passes the message on the standard
input.

You might be able to add -d to that command, but that will work only if
the calling process (the pipe transport) is running as an Exim admin
user.

If you want to see debugging from that command, why don't you just run
it separately? Just run

/usr/sbin/exim -oMr spam-scanned -bS -d

with some suitable input file?

Alternatively, add -odq to your command so that Exim queues the message
without delivery. Then you can run a delivery with debugging turned on
by using

exim -d -M <message-id>
