Jesus had some sort of body after his resurrection.
Most angels have the appearance of a man.
They don't have physical bodies
Peter was kicked in the side by an angel
When Abraham's servant went to find a wife for Isaac (Gen 24), he had angelic influence (no mention of the angel physically accompanying him). The angels who came to escort Lot and his family out of town were corporeal as they ate dinner (Gen 19:3). In Matthew 2:13, an angel appears to Joseph in a dream. However, an angel was able to physically kick Peter in the side to wake him up (Acts 12:7). The author of Hebrews says we may entertain angels (13:2) which suggests a physical form.
It would seem angels have the ability to assume both corporeal and non-corporeal forms as they see fit, suggesting they have both physical and spirit attributes.
