The first question is probably answered by consulting
http://www.openbsd.org/i386.html#hardware

This states the following Intel devices are supported: Intel i82540,
i82542, i82543, i82544, i82545, and i82546 based adapters (em)

The second question I cannot answer. Perhaps a look at man 4 em might help.
