This would only be the third time he's shot a film with scope lenses. There was a gap of 25 years between the previous two (Manhattan and Anything Else).

Were they the actual "CinemaScope" lenses that distorted and gave the actors the "mumps" in close-ups?

According to IMDB, its good ol' Pantar lenses so no. Those old Bausch & Lombes are as dead as the dodo.

I remember being shocked, way back in my early '20s when I was a movie theatre projectionist.

"Manhattan" was a scope movie. It was beautifully filmed and I was just amazed because everything he had done that I'd ever seen had been a standard "flat" projection.
