You should find this page on the Wordpress Codex useful: http://codex.wordpress.org/Function_Reference/add_post_meta
I would simply use the Meta Box Script from DeluxeBlogTips.
I'm also working on a (huge) site that requires (many) metabox/custom field integrations. Trust me, this will save you lots of time and is well written and thoroughly tested ;)
