You need to submit the original passport and not a photocopy. The same applies to the rest of your documentary evidence also.

Abhijack,
You need not provide the passport which is not used for travelling to UK

I think the operative part here is the "which shows his/her current leave" rather than the old passport itself which may or may not have a UK VISA
The applicant should also provide all previous passports and/or travel documents that he/she has used to travel to, and remain in, the United Kingdom which shows his/her current leave.
