I have just started mapping for source, but i have know wads or materials in my list bt i still have a few textures in the texture brouse list but not enough i dont understand??? How can i get the half life 2 wads and materials because i cannot find them under steam?????????

Select the Half-Life 2 option from teh Steam Source SDK launcher and run Hammer.

HL2 does not use wads anymore.

It uses materials which you can make yourself to use for your custom maps but most stuff is stored in the gfc files

The textues are auto-mounted into Hammer if your config is correct.

Add a folder with a proper gameinfo.txt within it and it will load the correct content. Look in the Hammer manual, its got a setup guide.
