Are there any PCI express mini connectors in the library? I've done a number of searches for molex and digikey part numbers. Nothing so far. If I have to create one, how long would you expect it to take (1st time)?

I couldn't find any pci express mini connectors in the library. The time it takes to create the part really depends on how clearly written the data sheet for the part displays the recommended pcb land pattern. Footprints don't usually take to long to create. Here is a document that takes you through the parts creation process.
