They're using 10Gbps pipes now I've been told.

(the reason I am after one of these modems from ebay is because I read that openreach no longer carry these modems with them during installs).
Yes they do.

Only BT and a few others supply modem-in-router combos, every of the dozen or more other FTTC ISPs still require the modem.

Like I said they allow any VDSL2 modem so the exact type doesn't matter.
