I've forgotten my encryption password in iTunes, and I've drawn up a list to test all the possibilities.
My question is: is there any constraint regarding the length, figures, special characters etc?
I can't find the answer in the assisrances pages, so I hope someone can help me here.
Thank you!

it would've been whatever you set it too, About encrypted backups on your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch - Apple Support
I'm not aware of any particular limitations on allowable passwords. See Disable iOS backup encryption - Apple Community. In particular:
If you have forgotten the password, or were not aware that encryption had been enabled, consider that it might be any computer, Apple ID, Wi-Fi password or device PIN that you've used in the past, working from the assumption that you might have reused a common password that you were using when encryption was first activated. See About encrypted backups on your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch - Apple Support for details.

How should an encrypted backup password look like?
