EDIT: Nevermind, found out. http://www.imperial-library.info/obbooks/souls_black_white.shtml
1) I guess it stays until used up? All I remember is, in DF should an enchanted weapon break, the soul of the being that was used to enchant the weapon is freed and attacks you. So, if you enchanted a rusty iron knife with the soul of a golden saint, and it broke, the golden saint would be freed and probably would start kicking your ass for what you did. I'm also going to assume that applies to all people and creatures when it comes to enchanting a weapon. As for recharging, I guess it works like a battery...?
2) And no, it's the caster's soul that leaks into the black soul gem, not the soul in the BSJ that leaks into the caster.
