Try below code to get currently loaded product id:

$product_id = $this->getProduct()->getId();

When you don’t have access to $this, you can use Magento registry:

$product_id = Mage::registry('current_product')->getId();

Also for product type i think 

$product = Mage::getModel('catalog/product')->load($product_id); 

$productType = $product->getTypeId();
