the core word importation stuff is in the wv library
use
cvs co wv
to get that library out
the hook from abi into wv is in abiword at
abi/src/wp/impexp/xp
the files ie_imp_MsWord_97.{cpp|h}

the lines you are looking for are in ie_imp_MsWord_97.cpp at line
89

wvParseStruct ps;
wvInitParser(&ps,fp);

wvInitParser in the wv lib extracts the ole2 streams from the ole file
and sets up the parser to call the various callbacks on paragraph begin
etc etc events.
