What size headset for rockhopper?

I have a 2008 specialized rockhopper that I have completely stripped and now rebuilding.
One thing that is confusing me is what headset i need. Some advice would be great.
Also, my front avid juicy 3 brake is leaking on the back of housing next to the leaver. Why could this be?
Lastly the hub on the rear wheel is moving from side to side about 1 cm which is effecting gear shifting. Is there any way I can tighten this?
Thanks
Tom

Is there any identifying marks on the headset? is one of two types, Specialized for a while used a very odd campagnolo style 'hiddenset'.
Sounds like a leaky seal in the lever.
You can adjust the cones on the rear hub with the right tools - have a look at Park Tools website for a guide. Sounds like it is knackered though and needs replacing ie a new wheel.0 -
I wil have a look tomorrow on headset.
Is there a fix for a leaky leaver?0 -
Depends what seal, could be the reservoir seal:

Need to try and trace the exact point of leakage.0
