After the Ringbearers leave at the end of the 3rd Age/beginning of the 4th Age, Tolkien is fairly implicit that the Age of Man, and men's governance over Arda, would preclude direct intervention from Eru or the Valar; ergo, since we are at the end of the 6th Age/Start of the 7th presently, it seems highly unlikely that any corporeal manifestation of a Maiaric or lesser order Ainur is lurking about. In any case, they aren't doing very well if they are here.
And welcome to the Downs, where presumption is our middle name.
