What happens to international hidden players if scouting is turned off?

Do the players just never come into existence because no team will "find" them, or are they inserted into the free agent pool randomly for any team to sign?

International players are only found if you have scouting turned on. Your draft pool may have a % of foreign born players depending on what percent of foreign players you chose in Game Setup.

Right, I understand that they'll only be found by a particular team if scouting is on. But if scouting is turned off, what happens to those players who would have been found if scouting had been turned on? Do they get put in the draft pool, appear at random as free agents for any team to sign, or just never come into play?

Never come into play. That "find hidden players" option is pointless without scouting.
