Numbered channels (including custom ones) are part of the "CHANNEL" chat type. You'd need to look at the fourth argument to SendChatMessage (the actual channel, by number, for "CHANNEL" messages, or the recipient's name for "WHISPER" messages) in addition to the second one (the chat type). Your current code mistakenly names the second argument "channel"; you should always check the API documentation and try to stick with the "official" argument names, to avoid confusion.

Lua Code:
  1. local chatTypesToProcess = {
  2.     ["GUILD"] = true,
  3.     ["SAY"] = true,
  4.     ["YELL"] = true,
  5.     ["CHANNEL"] = true,
  6. }
  7.  
  8. local channelsToProcess = {
  9.     ["RP"] = true,
  10. }
  11.  
  12. local old = SendChatMessage
  13.  
  14. SendChatMessage = function(message, chatType, language, channel)
  15.     if chatType and chatTypesToProcess[chatType] and message:len() > 0 and not message:match("^[%(*/]") then
  16.         if chatType == "CHANNEL" then
  17.             -- Get the channel's name from its number. We don't want to
  18.             -- use channel numbers in the list, because they can change.
  19.             local _, channelName = GetChannelName(channel)
  20.             if channelName and channelsToProcess[channelName:upper()] then
  21.                 -- We need to uppercase the channel's name, because the
  22.                 -- capitalization can change too.
  23.                 message = message:gsub("r", "rr"):gsub("rrrr", "rr"):gsub("R", "RR"):gsub("RRRR", "RR")
  24.             end
  25.         else
  26.             message = message:gsub("r", "rr"):gsub("rrrr", "rr"):gsub("R", "RR"):gsub("RRRR", "RR")
  27.         end
  28.     end
  29.     old(message, chatType, language, channel)
  30. end
