should one be able to find these parameters
(overload_dns_timeout_scale_percent and overload_dns_timeout_period_secs)
on
https://consensus-health.torproject.org/#consensusparams
or in
https://collector.torproject.org/recent/relay-descriptors/consensuses/

or is this not yet deployed?
What are the values of these parameters currently?

Every network parameter has a default value; IIUC, unless at least three  authorities are voting for some value, everybody will use the default.  It's normal for the authorities not to vote for a different value if they all think the default is reasonable.

The default for these parameters is in param-spec.txt at https://gitlab.torproject.org/tpo/core/torspec/-/blob/main/param-spec.txt#L194

cheers,
