From time to time out-of-corp friends will ask me to provide some boosts to their mining with my Orca. I have no problem with this, I either sit on a station or sit in a belt occasionally moving ore from corp hangar to other hangars onboard the ship.

As of today, non-corp members are no longer permitted to drop ore into the Orca. They get a pop-up claiming permission is denied, with no way of overriding it.
CCP, have you messed up one of the ways in which I like to help my friends? Or was this meant to be intentional? All I wanna do is haul stuff for my mates without jetcans.

You're talking about the Corporate cargohold of the Orca, correct? If so, that's how it was always intended to work. Only members of the Corporation you belong to should be able to deposit items in there. Sounds to me like CCP just fixed a bug that allowed members not in the same Corp to access the Corporate hanger.

That being said, it would an awesome feature to white-list players and allow them temporary access to said hanger.

Or are you talking about the Ore cargohold?

Isn't there still a check box on the config screen for fleet member use in that playfield only?

have you tagged them into your fleet and set them on the highest ranking in standings?
