    Nor sure what you mean by 'Scale terrain' but yoy can make holes in the terrain by using the 'Set /Clear Empty' brush in the terrain editor. You caves have to be DIF models, you cannot sculpt the terrain to do it for you.

    The terrain repeats infinitely. The size of the area that repeats is fixed. You can try changing the squareSize field to get a different terrain density. Or you can do C++ modifications to alter the terrain's behavior.
