Don,

Have they determined that it's leaking from the headgasket or have you?
There are a bunch of coolant hoses back there that might spray onto the head
and give the impression of a gasket leak.

When you say wife, that's a thought too.  The temperature gauge in my mom's
van could be pegged in the red and she would be totally oblivious to it.
Perhaps the car did overheat at sometime.
