Ok, so it looks like your request body is just updating the metadata on the customer object. You don't want to be doing that. You want to update the default_payment_method within the invoice settings object: https://stripe.com/docs/api/customers/update#update_customer-invoice_settings-default_payment_method

So your request body looked like this:

{
metadata: {
invoice_settings.default_payment_method: "pm_1KEJPECHSKMd2K1k5xbK3wLu"
}
}

It needs to be this:

{
invoice_settings: {
default_payment_method: "<the payment method>"
}
}
