IIRC they didn't change to adblue until 2014 so I do think YES it uses EOLYS

Adblu is in addition to Eolys on the later cars. It doesn't replace it.

AFAIK all X7s and (and Mk 2 facelift) diesels have Eolys.

Eolys is used in the DPF to reduce particle pollution. Adblu is used in the Selective Catalytic Reduction (SCR) process to reduce nitrogen oxides pollution.
