I have recently been farming the dickens out of the Baseborn & Fowlingpiece heist as well. 14 times I selected "...a Sealed Archive" and got the Searing Enigma exactly once. So it seems the chances might have been changed.

On a possibly related note, there seems to be a new heist option: The Balustraded House at Elderwick, residence of the Elusive Countess. The heist there gave me (using the "keep her secrets" option, though from what I understand the "expose" option merely replaces the Magnificent Diamond with the somewhat more useful but equally valuable Favours In High Places) 25 Surface Silk Scraps, 10 Ostentatious Diamonds, a Magnificent Diamond and a Scrap of Puzzle-Damask, totaling up at 35 Echoes, and requiring (and spending!) Favours: Criminals 5.

This looks to me like an update / rebalancing of the heist system, giving us a new, more profitable heist that spends favours while nerfing the more easily grindable one.
