Most of the references at Arreat Summit reguarding the application of prefixes and suffixes to items is baed on the way the game handled the affix prior to v1.07. The system had a major change in the way affixes are applied to items starting with v1.07. If you are playing v1.09 right now you can use this calculator to see what affixes will be possible on an item.

For an Imbue, use the option that a rare item is being dropped by a monster and the ilvl=clvl+4. This will allow you to see what affixes are available on the item at different character levels.
I've seen on Arreat Summit that most of the good mods are of level (mlvl ??) not greater than 40.
Actually they are display the minimum affix level (alvl) required to allow the affix to appear. The alvl can be quite different than the ilvl that the item is generated at.
(By the way, I want to imbue a druid pelt, so I'm reading the circlets numbers, assuming it's the same)
Circlets often have affixes that cannot appear on other types of helms or the druid pelts. Therefore it is not a good one to be looking at to see what can be on item like the druid pelts. For example there are various res-all (Prismatic for one) prefixes that can appear on circlets that cannot appear on any other helm like item.
For example the +2 druid skills prefix that appears on the pelts is not the same one that appears on circlets. The one for pelts (and clubs) requires an alvl of 42+, while the one for circlets (and amulets) requires an alvl of 90+. To actually get the +2 skills on a pelt will depend on the qlvl (item level from armor/weapons internal data files). For a Wolf Head (qlvl=4) the required ilvl would be 44+, while for a Hunter's Guise (qlvl=46) would require an ilvl of 65+. So use the calculator above to see what you will be able to get. It also will have some information on the realative chances of actually getting specific affixe on the items.
