Yes. It's enabled.

It looks like I'm not the only one. Others are reporting this issue.

Look under 'OK Google goes missing' on the page below

Just curious. If anyone has the GEL installed, do you now have the "OK Google" option?

I have it on my Nexus 5, though I disabled it for the moment as I don't use it.

I lost this function as well after the update. I fixed it though by going into the Voice settings in the Google Now settings menu and changing it back to "English (US)" as I had recently changed it to to English (Canada) recently. After switching it back to "US", it began working again. I hope this works for you too

I've had this on my Google Play version Nexus 4 since Android 4.4 and its two subsequent updates. I've been in touch with Google tech support for the past two weeks and still no solution. I wiped the cache from recovery mode and had "OK Google" appear intermittently for a couple of days, afterwhich it returned to the same screen shot shown above. All my settings are perfect, and there's no message appearing like the one you'll see if you go to Google Now menu, to settings, to help and feedback which displays the following:
