Here's what I found:
showkeys maps the small enter as code 76 (0x4c) and the right option as
code 58 (0x3a). According to src/linux/drivers/macintosh/mackeymap.map,
0x4c is mapped to KP_Enter and 0x3a is mapped to AltGr. According to
src/linux/include/linux/input, KEY_KPENTER is code 96 and there is no
AltGR.
So the short version of the story is, use 96 for the small enter. I don't
think you can get the right option as it has already been swallowed by a
lower layer. I don't know much about this system, but you could try
remapping the option key to something else like right alt and then use
right alt's keycode. How I don't know :)
