simple enough NPTH with large copper. But how to manage the stensil? any suggestions

Keep out zone on the paste layer?

Take a look at the Mounting_Wuerth standard lib. Has similar paste layouts, created using custom pads.
(Scripts at https://github.com/pointhi/kicad-footprint-generator/tree/master/scripts/Mounting_Hardware might be of use, too)
