Lorica hamata for sure, Kalkriese segmentata probably not. There's a book in German called Helme in Caesars Heer. It gives the lowdown on what helmets would have been worn in that period, with photos. Highly recommended is Graham Sumner's Roman Military Clothing Vol.1, which touches into Caesar's and Augustan periods. Graham's a member here, and may be able to give plenty of advice. His book (published by Osprey) shows military men in off-duty gear aplenty, and I think would be a great visual resource for you.
