To see if your current session is using SSL/TLS, try this:

select sys_context('USERENV','NETWORK_PROTOCOL') from dual;

It should return 'TCPS'.  I guess that doesn't guarantee that it's
encrypted, but it's a good sign.  My second test would be to do a packet
capture to verify that the traffic was illegible, and it looks like you
already did that.
