The variable that holds enchantment level is spe.
There is no dedicated function that checks for whether an item can have an enchantment, the check is included in several places in the code (For enchanting weapons, it checks if the object is a weapon or a tool that can be used as a weapon). Just looking quickly, this is checked in read.c in the SCR_ENCHANT_WEAPON section (where erode-proofing is handled) and in wield.c (where the actual enchanting of weapons is handled). You may also have to amend the code that displays object names (spe is ignored for object classes that can't be enchanted) and the code that handles attacks (again, spe is ignored for invalid types).
