A lot of different religious Orders over the centuries have send missionaries out to foreign lands, the Dominicans and Franciscans along with the Jesuits were prominent in the New World, and in Far East. Overall, probably the biggest "leader" of foreign missions was the Jesuits as they were specifically founded both to combat the protestant heresy and to preach foreign missions.

Who led the Roman Catholic Church and The Greek Orthodox Church after the split?

There is no Roman Catholic Church. It's just Catholic, not Roman Catholic. Roman is an epithet first commonly used in England after the protestant revolt to describe the Catholic Church. It is never used by the official Catholic Church. The Catholic Church has always been led by Jesus Christ and the Holy Spirit. Jesus appointed St. Peter and his successors as His Vicars on earth to lead His Church, St. Leo IX was pope when the Greeks split, but he died that year, his successor was Victor II. The Greek Orthodox Church, I am assuming was led by the Patriarch which was Michael Cerularius at that time.
