From what I've read elsewhere, NS now has control of the crossovers as CP 515.  I can't imagine the diamonds are gone yet, but it doesn't sound like they're in use any more for regular Metra moves.

Are any METRAs still using the diamonds ?

Looks like the Englewood Flyover is in service without a formal opening.  Metra trains began using it over the October 4-5 weekend.
