Not reliable enough to judge, they may have the option to automatically respond to pings disabled, most people don't though, so it's not to hard to work out.
However when Patchou activates the auto-updater (as soon as he's sure the new build is 100% bug free) most of the contacts with Plus will be able to hear all sounds you send, those without Plus obviously won't, but is there much harm in just asking them to download it, they either will or won't.

As for what Messenger version they have, that would involve modifying the protocol, which PAtchou won't do.
I would be interesting to find a way to make your client send a call to the other contact's client to work out the version, but it would be very hard to do. Also pointless, if you want to know if they have a version before 7, just send a nudge. I can't think of a reason when you would need to work out what exact build they have, unless you are helping with a problem, in which case just take the attitude of they'll either tell you, or they're not worth helping if they're being awkward.
