Rep Tiles are a form of L substitution? I am wondering if Escher explored this way of suggesting infinity. The closest thing that occurs to me at the moment is Fish and Scales [link] where each scale of the fish can be substituted with a fish.
A Rep-N Tile is a polygon that can be dissected into N smaller copies of itself. See [link] for examples. I have seen Rep-Tiles visualized using L-System programs as you suggest but this was generated using an IFS (Iterated function system [link]). See [link] for additional info.
