40 spokes (cross 4).
Yes sprocket bolts are 3/8" Rotor bolts are 5/16 (mostly).

That appears to be a late EVO rear with a custom rotor.
I think these wheels are pretty much generic.
The big differences are, bearing style - Rotor ID - axle size. (My un-calibrated eye says the pic has a 3/4" axle, ball bearing, and a large rotor hole)
Some early stuff has goofy seals and spacers that can be swapped out if needed.

Check your axle and make sure you get a straight one, they are fairly soft.

Yes 3/4 axle is correct. Im wondering if this will be strong enough to mount a sprocket directly to it.
