Recent chapter demonstrated that simply having a COC infused attack is not enough to leave a scar on Kaido nor Deal significant damage to Kaido.
Yamato used COC on her thunder Bagua which caused Kaido to bleed from the forehead, however, Kaido did not receive a scar from the attack.
When Kaido was hit with togen totsuka by the Scabbards, he stated that they did not have enough power to open up the old scar. He never mentioned anything about COC.
At first I believed that COC was required to scar Kaido especially from the Zoro scene. However, with recent chapters, the explanation would be that Kaido sensed COC in the attack (just like Luffy did) and the attack left a scar because it was as powerful.
COC on its own is useless without a powerful attack backing it. Hence it is not a requirement to scar Kaido. What is needed is Armament Haki + significant power. This is why Big Mom was worried for Kaido when facing Hiryu Kaen which didn't have COC
This would explain why Kaido only has two scars (Oden and Zoro) even though he has fought other COC users like Big Mom, Shanks, Luffy and Yamato.
