I think, it is more likely the on receive message event, that you can evaluate.

The OnMessage event is common on the objects and a wait for event activity, when you sample an object that has the event, will offer OnMessage as the triggering event. This is not the sending of the message but the receiving.

So can a wait for event activity listen to itself, if there is a message being passed to it or can it listen to only 3D objects

In you case you can just detect that a token enters/exits the activity: "Custom Code- Send message"
