I found an MX and ugly 50/1.2 (yes, the fast one) for £30. Lens sent to Michael Spencer for a £30 clean and all was well.

I would go for the 1.4 but stop down to f1.8 or f2.0.

This is correct - in MLU or Live view, the eyepiece leaks light to the meter. in normal use, with the camera to the eye, extraneous light is blocked.

I seem to recall reading somewhere that for long exposures with MLU you need to mask the eyepiece to prevent light leakage but that isn't required in LV.

I am possibly missing something here, but light leakage should affect all exposure methods the same .... normal shutter/MLU/Live View ? During the exposure the mirror is up and the first curtain is open.

Is it full frame?
