I recommend he consults with an immigration solicitor as anything regarding extended family members is difficult. Usually it's easier to bring kids or teenagers. For adults, even if you prove a dependency, it's very hard to get anything. You need to see all the details of the situation and a professional can try to find where a good representation can be made.

Hi Babar,
He can indeed apply under new EU Settlement Scheme Family Permit. However, the big challenge is to proof of dependency. Your uncle is a middle aged only 40 and still dependant on your father will raise a lot of queries. It is easy to apply FP for closed family member i.e. Father Mother, Grandparents etc, as you do not need to proof dependency for closed family member.
You can off-course apply under the new scheme, but you will not have an appeal right if the HO refuse to grant visa. You should check the requirement on GOV.CO.UK EU Settlement scheme family permit requirement. The following thread might be useful as the requirement are almost same as the close family member.
