Wearing a Cloak of the Manta Ray gives you a tail attack.

Can we ditch the permissive rule set argument?

By that logic, our characters immediately suffocate, since the rules don't specifically state that they can breathe.

A Medium character can breathe easily for 6 hours in a sealed chamber measuring 10 feet on a side.

Humanoids breathe, eat, and sleep.

I don't understand why a size bonus would apply if you're not actually changing size.

You are changing size. To Medium.

Bane

Aura Moderate conjuration; CL 8th; Craft Magic Arms and Armor, summon monster I; Price +1 bonus.
Description
A bane weapon excels against certain foes. Against a designated foe, the weapon's enhancement bonus is +2 better than its actual bonus. It also deals an extra 2d6 points of damage against the foe.
To randomly determine a weapon's designated foe, roll on the following table:
d% Designated Foe
01–05 Aberrations
06–09 Animals
10–16 Constructs
17–22 Dragons
23–27 Fey
28–60 Humanoids (pick one subtype)
61–65 Magical Beasts
66–70 Monstrous Humanoids
71–72 Oozes
73–88 Outsiders (pick one subtype)
89–90 Plants
91–98 Undead
99–100 Vermin

So zero. ;)

Being magic for the purpose of damage reduction is the exact meaning of creatures that strike as magic weapons even if it is not the exact wording. Your eidolon has magic claws and can claw magically at ghosts that get clawed by magic.

Grab (Ex)

An eidolon becomes adept at grappling foes, gaining the grab ability. Pick bite, claw, pincers, slam, tail slap, or tentacle attacks. Whenever the eidolon makes a successful attack of the selected type, it can attempt a free combat maneuver check. If successful, the eidolon grapples the target. This ability only works on creatures of a size one category smaller than the eidolon or smaller. Eidolons with this evolution receive a +4 bonus on CMB checks made to grapple.

When you bite (if you chose bite), you immediately get a free try to grapple.

Constrict (Ex)

An eidolon gains powerful muscles that allow it to crush those it grapples. Whenever the eidolon successfully grapples a foe using the grab evolution, it deals additional damage equal to the amount of damage dealt by the attack used by the grab evolution. This evolution is only available to eidolons of the serpentine base form.

If that grapple granted to your bite by Grab works, you also immediately do constrict damage (the damage is equal to your bite).

Grapple

As a standard action, you can attempt to grapple a foe, hindering his combat options. If you do not have Improved Grapple, grab, or a similar ability, attempting to grapple a foe provokes an attack of opportunity from the target of your maneuver. Humanoid creatures without two free hands attempting to grapple a foe take a –4 penalty on the combat maneuver roll. If successful, both you and the target gain the grappled condition. If you successfully grapple a creature that is not adjacent to you, move that creature to an adjacent open space (if no space is available, your grapple fails). Although both creatures have the grappled condition, you can, as the creature that initiated the grapple, release the grapple as a free action, removing the condition from both you and the target. If you do not release the grapple, you must continue to make a check each round, as a standard action, to maintain the hold. If your target does not break the grapple, you get a +5 circumstance bonus on grapple checks made against the same target in subsequent rounds. Once you are grappling an opponent, a successful check allows you to continue grappling the foe, and also allows you to perform one of the following actions (as part of the standard action spent to maintain the grapple).

If you continue the grapple granted to your bite by Grab and that grapple is successful, you also immediately do constrict damage (the damage is equal to your bite).
