I'd like to know if its possible to setup kodi when scraping artwork, for the artwork to go inside that movies folder and go beside the movie. Instead of it going randomly to the user data folder, I'd like it to go into my movies folders on my external hard drive.

Give the add-on Artwork Downloader a shot, should do what you ask. Unless I'm miss-understanding your question.

If you export your database to individual files, that also exports all text meta to nfo, so in that scenario all art in thumbnails and data in databases is dumped by each file see
Import-export_library (wiki)
But no there is no setting for what you want aside from above you have to do it each time manually.

If that's all you want to do use texturecache.py with P and then R then Xd thats should prune the cache and
userdata (wiki) thumbnails folder, you cant delte them otherwise and not advised you go messing with things you likely to break otherwise.
The tool I recommended, google it, one of its functions is to handle garbage collection for this sort of thing and more.
. And where exactly is all the artwork stored? When I scrape from tvdb, and moviedb. Because I'd like to export my library like you said. Then delete the old artwork that's inside the kodi files, because my player only have 8gb storage and kodi uses 3gb already. Thank you
