TF2 robot eye particles

Long story short, I want there to be a plugin that enables the particles for the eyes of the robots for when they're used in vanilla gameplay. By this I mean the plugin where you can use !robot or other plugins that make the bots and/or players into robots.

Small update, someone made the code for me but they didn't make it a .smx file and IDK how to make one. If anybody could take this code and make it a .smx file I'd gladly appreciate it.
stock int CreateParticle(const char[] effectName)
{
int fx = CreateEntityByName("info_particle_system");

if (fx != -1)
{
DispatchKeyValue(fx, "effect_name", effectName);
DispatchSpawn(fx);
ActivateEntity(fx);
AcceptEntityInput(fx, "Start");
}

return fx;
}

I'm not sure that the eye 'glow' is a particle. It may actually be part of the model. However, I suck at model stuff so I'm not knowledgeable enough to help you. There are others who are good at this sort of stuff but getting an answer in this forum is becoming increasingly unlikely. You may try asking your question in Discord.

Edit: Found this link showing how it's done for Source Filmmaker. Appears to be a particle labeled 'bot_eye_glow'. Here's a link: https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfil.../?id=746191556

I don't know how you'd translate that into a plugin.
