If there is no evidence in the alert log, and no backups/file copies/incarnations are registered in rman, my bet is that the database isn't backed up.

Don't discount the possibility that they are just using Veritas to back up everything on the Oracle server. Not correct, but I've seen people that know nothing about Oracle do that.

I found no signs of RMAN being used in
any way shape or form...
I've been told they are doing "hot" backups using Veritas... HOWEVER, the alert log shows no signs what so ever of "alter tablespace xyz begin/end backup"...
Can it do a good backup backing up live
DB files and leaving no signs what so
ever that backup took place.
Is Veritas capable of this?
If so, why is there a Veritas interface
to RMAN???
Confusion, confusion...
