Except for the Paddington-Greenford service. I think that it and GOBLIN
are the only two diesel services that operate entirely within Greater
London.
A lot of local London rail services leave the boundary though. I'd
count the Chiltern most-stops service to Gerrard's Cross. I think the
next the FGW semi-fasts to Oxford, calling several stops in London.
There's very little after that - and I'm fairly sure the diesel South
West Trains service suggested upthread is pick-up/set-down only at
Clapham Junction, so that doesn't count.
There are also the slow hourly FGWs to Reading calling at (I think)
more London stops, and certainly a higher proportion of London stops,
than the Oxford slows.
Are the Southern services to Uckfield pick-up/set-down only at East
Croydon? And does XC still run between Olympia and East Croydon?
I don't think Southern's Uckfield service is pick-up/set-down only at
East Croydon - the PDF timetables on Southern's website certainly
don't suggest this is the case:

XC does still run between Olympia and East Croydon - I think it's two
trains a day each way, but the timetable needs a bit of decoding to
work this out as the East Croydon and Olympia stops only appear in the
notes:
