The automod information is in automagic.txt. I must plead ignorance on the mechanics of the level requirements, though. I thought the clvl requirement of those affixes was waived, but I don't have any real information either way.
The reason amazon bows can only have 5 sockets is that in ItemTypes.txt, the MaxSock40 is 5. That is, regardless of how many sockets a specific type of amazon bow could have, amazon bows in general are capped at 5. I consider the inconsistency a bug, though it's debatable in which direction it should be fixed.
In 1.09 and 1.10, there's the recipe 3 perfect gems + magic item = rerolled magic item with the same ilvl. This recipe can reroll bows to have a second chance at getting the good affixes (if it has a high-enough ivl already). It's also nice for jewels and charms.
