While your selection is still on its own layer, you can use Levels (or Curves if you want more accuracy) to adjust its lightness. It is best to keep all these bits as separate layers...
It is also a good idea to feather the selection before the copy-paste, so that your paste-in has edges that blend smoothly to their surroundings.
In simpler cases I would have used the Resynthesizer plugin to fill out the guy but here it doesn't work well (the background is not random enough, the grid gets garbled).
