Infinite doesn't mean everything. Infinite can include a repeating pattern, even a huge repeating pattern which seems random at first. Not everything you could possibly imagine would necessarily have to exist in the multiverse.

And even if infinite and perfectly random, some things may just not be feasible and just not exist.

If pi is infinite, that means pi must contain i

Well obviously. It's right there next to the p.

It does not contain e though.
