I have a team of ogerpon, meowscarada, greninja, cinderaxe and clefairy.
I am looking for tanky utility, I am currently using this duraladon set:

Duraludon @ Eviolite
Ability: Stalwart
Level: 50
Tera Type: Flying
EVs: 4 Atk / 252 Def / 252 SpA
Lax Nature
- Protect
- Body Press
- Dragon Tail
- Flash Cannon

so which one? (feel free to change/add movesets)

Neither of the mons you're talking about are viable in Reg I https://www.smogon.com/forums/threads/3766018/ (nor are they viable in any active VGC format) which makes this question a bit silly to ask.
I know it's annoying but in competitive, you can't just pick your favourites then retroactively fit them into whatever format is in front of you. Some mons are bad and that's just life.
I could've picket any mon but copperajah and duraludon won me a lot of battles due to team synergy, in fact I won one 1-3 with duraludon and copperajah also fills in that role. Just because a pokemon isn't viable doesn't mean you can't use it - I remember a person getting top 3 of an regionals using yanmega - with no competitive usage for more than 6ish years. Duraludons physical bulk lets it live attacks, disrupt with dragon tail and follow me clefable prevents and fighting type attacks with it! I got a 1320 elo using duraludon - but lost it all when I thought my cat team was viable. (my elo WAS NOT 1320 before!), so I have a lot of experience with duraludon and not much with copperajah, so I don't know much about it, all I want to say is say is despite the normal people who decide whats viable, theres always a yanmega.
