I've been enjoying the POV-ray.
I'd like to know if I could use other primitives, such as torus, or some I
invented , instead of the sphere in the spheresweeping?

Thanks in advance.

Not as a simple built-in object like the sphere_sweep. With macros, you 
could generate pretty much anything you want. One way is to make a lot 
of copies of the object along a path, another would be to generate a 
mesh object, which would render much faster, use less memory, but be 
harder to write.
