Just curious...what made you think the HG was blown?

Speaking for myself, it's always been a leak on the exhaust valve side, pushing exhaust into the water journal, thereby super-heating the coolant and over-heating the truck.

Yes, I think it was the same for me. I confirmed it with the chemical kit from NAPA. And, yes, the coolant system was being pressurized.
