Answer 1

 SELECT * FROM ALL_source WHERE UPPER(text) LIKE '%BLAH%'

 SELECT * FROM DBA_source WHERE UPPER(text) LIKE '%BLAH%'

The difference is dba_source will have the text of all stored objects. All_source will have the text of all stored objects accessible by the user performing the query. Oracle Database Reference 11g Release 2 (11.2)

Another difference is that you may not have access to dba_source.

Answer 2

I allways use UPPER(text) like UPPER('%blah%')

If you use UPPER(text), the like '%lah%' will always return zero results. Use '%LAH%'.
