tell application "InDesign CS"
with timeout of 1000 seconds
   place blah
end timeout
   search and replace blah
end tell

Your syntax for search and replace isn't right. But you use the same technique for the timeout -- just use a number that is large enough that you're sure it will work in normal conditions, but not so large that when things go wrong you end up waiting a year for the error report.
