If you have a damage of 300, and magic arrow converts 10% of the damage to magical, it does so before the damage is inflicted to the monster. That means that you'd indeed do 30 damage (magical) to the physical immune foe you're facing.
As to what concerns the best skill against PIs, that's hard to tell. If you can cope with the cast delay, this could be Immolation Arrow with synergies. It especially kicks ass in narrow paths and doorways. Since you probably have only a few points to spend, IA might be hard to take into heights were it deals real damage.
Freezing Arrow is the other option, but the same things apply here.
Perhaps it's reasonable for you to take some Unique Weapon that does a fair amount of elemental damage, like Hellrack.
Max Magic Arrow converts 20% of your damage to magical, but that sounds rather little, too.
Sorry if I can't be of more help to you.
Greetings, Fragbait
thanks for your reply Fragbait, I would like to add another question?
Can de magic part of magic arrow be resisted, and if so on what resist?
Immolation Arrow sounds interesting, I will have to check the mana cost / damage. This one will be resisted on fire resist.
perhaps magic arrow can be considered if it's magic damage does not check versus any resists.
