Question

Is it possible to copy a short clip and search a larger file for instances of that clip?

I want to copy that signature and then search other episodes for the same clip. Is this even possible? 

Here's what I want to do--I have a long form podcast with a musical signature somwehre in the middle, 5 seconds long. It occurs at random times in each episode.

The only tool that can even vaguely do that is the Sound Remover - and looking for a sequence like that is very unlikely to work, in my experience. Usually anything that's 'different' like music in a speech-based product is easy to spot, because its harmonic content isn't the same as speech. So if you use the Spectral display rather than the waveform display, things like this are generally much easier to spot.
