Hi
1do I create feature lines at toe , then vertical between the toe and the cliff , then use the grading & elev.editor
2 Once I obtain the infill surface l, how rotate or orient the model w/ rocks so this photo 3
is draped over it.?.

Not too sure I understand your prose are you asking how to grade or how to get an image ine you drawing?

I'm having difficulty reading through your post and isolating all of the separate questions that you're asking. Let's see if I can clear up one or two of them at least.
Is the best way to create the design surface is by creating a feature lines and then creating grading objects? Is this is the only way? If that is so, how do i create a FILL grading group for an eroded embankment of a reservoir.
For this situation it sounds like a grading object would be appropriate at least to start from. The problem you may run into is that a grading always projects perpendicular to its baseline. If you're starting from the top of the collapsed bank then it looks like you don't have a straight line to work from. If you have a slope break in the middle of the design then you may be able to project in both directions from there.
Once I obtain the infill surface of the fill, how rotate or orient the model , ( rock material - rendered) so this photo 2 is draped over it.?
Insert your photo into the drawing. Move and scale it so that it covers the extents of your surface. Use the Drape Image tool to render the image onto the surface. You'll have to use a surface style that displays triangles and switch the visual style to Realistic to see the photo.
Maybe you could create your design surface just by a series of feature lines representing your grade break points. Add these feature lines to a surface (as contours or breaklines I think will work). Are you trying to determine the volume of fill required, or just simply draw the design surface? will you be modify the existing terrain or just filling the gaps?
A sketch of a cross section would help.
