You may be quite correct. After sleeping on it, I recall another 5 cyl engine that ran out of coolant. It turned out that the aluminum race the camshafts sit in warped. Not pretty. The owner opted for a new engine rather than just a head, not knowing if the top of the block itself warped.

Still, a gallon of Zerex to fill the engine is not costly and might be worth a try?? It is your call.

Keeping it running is better than buying new
