Might even be easier than using a spell, if he uses some of his blood or whatnot. Item creation requires spells specifically. SLA (and invocations which are SLA) can be used for Specific spells as described on CArc p72. There is (to my knowledge) no text in Tome of Magic allowing supernatural abilities the same "Specific Spell Requirement", therefore they do not count. As for your second part, sure. A DM could do anything he wants, rule 0 and all. For example, if you have a supernatural ability like: Acid Fog (Su): You may use Acid Fog as the spell once per day. I would allow it to be used for Craft Wondrous Items, but only because of the "as the spell" phrase despite there being no rule that tells me I can do so.
