For the placing the last search in your substitution pattern, it's easy. Hit Ctrl+R / while in command mode to insert the text of you're last searched command. Works with the * command.
I don't know any shortcut for the searching the last substitution. Try :help <C-r> to see if anything comes to your mind.
