Currently ive given a unit the Item health bonus with added levels, and tried to level that with each upgrade , unfortunately I think you're right and item abilities can't be levelled even if I uncheck them as item abilities.

Does anyone know a unit ability that passively increases HP?

I am upgrating the "+ HP" ability which was originally an item ability and turned it into a unit ability. But I level it up with triggers since it doesn't appear in the game, I'm using a dummy ability just for text and level both at the same time.

Try using the item like youve been, make a dummy ability, make both your ability and item ability have equal levels, then on hero learns ability, set level of ability for unit = to level of learned ability...something like that.
It should work, item abilities ARE level able, but ive never tried using the health ability like that...not a bad idea though, if it works, maybe ill try it on the map im working on, see if it works
