I get that rushing fluid sound in the heater core and coolant lines all the time when I am using the heat. I've heard it in every toyota i've ever driven. It's not a HG problem for me.

I would reccomend that you not worry about it too much and keep a close eye on the coolant and oil (smell the oil as well).
If you are truly concerned get a leakdown test performed.
