Copied, re-arrannged and pasting this info from the main E-sommet thread for hopefully easier future reference/searching.

2018

the 2018 E sommet had an FSA headset
FSA Orbit 1.5 Zero Stack (No.57), 1.1/8” – 1.5” headset
According to the details on CRC website they are 36 x 45.
FSA Orbit 1.5 ZS Headset (No.57) | Chain Reaction Cycles
or
Orbit Headset Bearing Kit | 1 1/8, Tapered No. 52 57 42 44| FSA Headset Bearings | eBay
The Blue Seal ones on the Ebay link above are correct according to @davosaurusrex

2019

If you have a 2019 Esommet it should have a Nukeproof headset
The bearings you need for that are these:
Nukeproof Steel Headset Bearing | Chain Reaction Cycles
SB-A 30 is the top bearing
SB-B 40 2015 onwards is the bottom bearing
