Since Pi is infinite and non-repeating, would that mean any finite sequence of non-repeating numbers should appear somewhere in Pi?

How about ANY FINITE SEQUENCE AT ALL?

Yeah. This is a plot point used in a few stories, eg Carl Sagan's "Contact"
Not accurate. Pi needs to be a normal number for that to happen, something yet to prove/disprove.
Replace numbers with letters, and you have Jorge Luis Borges' The Library of Babel.
