If i really want to use misetic spores as piece of terrain to bloc some LoS or hide some vital troops behind what size of object would be appropriate?

big as an orange? a softball size? or anything more or less spherical that can old the bulk of a tyranid monstrous creature?

Use a Drop Pod as a size reference and few can fault you.

I'd say close to an orange in size, but more oblong.

I agree with this.

GW's old site use to have a terrain tutorial on how to make a Mycetic spore, although at the time it was just a piece of fluff and didnt have actual rules. It was huge though, about the size of a land raider (possibly bigger).

The Current Mynetic Spore should roughly be about the size of a fex, perhaps a tad bit larger. It's shown in the book that a Fex pretty much fits perfectly into it, with a rather thin membrane enclosing the fex.

Drop pod sized, as these on the left and right (left Crusader Casting, right old Epicast):



Mr. Dandy and Chapterhouse offer further models of roughly the same size.
