If Crossrail 2 is so essential to the success of HS2, why hasn't the
cost of Crossrail 2 been included in HS2 project costings?

I presume the Seven Sisters to Alexandra Palace branch would be all
tunnel, since the abandoned railway is heavily built upon.

That's what it appears to show. There is no portal shown on that branch.

The ex Northern Height route terminated at Alexandra Palace and doing
an arc from Finsbury Park. This routing is coming at the Palace from
the completely opposite direction

There is an abandoned railway from Seven Sisters to Palace Gates and
Bowes Park.

There was another branch line running NW from Seven Sisters towards
Alexandra Palace though - this was nothing to do with the 'Northern Heights'
proposals, it terminated at Palace Gates, which was a station just east of
the current Alexandra Palace (formerly Wood Green).

Wasn't part of the trackbed taken over by Bounds Green depot?

Just the very end of it, I believe, mostly occupying the wartime connection
onto the Hertford North line:
