These two lines are normal and are seperated from the others in
question by half an hour. sshd does this from time to time; I don't
remember the interval offhand.

1040 is just an unallocated port number above 1024. This means
somebody's running their ssh client non-setuid, and there's nothing
wrong with that. Probably just someone sshing in.
