What is Ornstein weak to?

Ornstein is weak against fire, using a +5 fire weapon in this fight will be significantly easier. However, if you do not have easy access to the Fire Ember or the Chaos Ember, Quelaag's Furysword is also a good alternative. Pyromancies are therefore also quite effective.

What is Ornstein Smough's weakness?

Smough is particularly weak to fire, and Ornstein isn't much of a fan of it either. Lightning based magic will not work well here, and the various Soul Arrows can do some damage, but you will need quite a few shots to drop these bosses. Ornstein is fast, and will dart around the arena if you are to far from his reach.
