Perhaps this is only needed in the  sl6x  section.

This bit of sed should do it:

sed -i '/\[sl6x\]/,/\[/ { /baseurl/ {
  h ; s!http:.*scientific/!https://my.internal.server/sl! ; p ;
  g ; s/baseurl=/                / } }' /etc/yum.repos.d/sl6x.repo

It is "parsing" the URL in as much as you seem to need to replicate the bit of 
the existing one after  'scientific/'.

Hope that helps.
