Head Gasket??? Please tell me no

Hey Everyone got my car back on Saturday after not having it for 2 months.
Replaced:
Water Pump
all timing pulleys
Thermostat
Rocker Cover Gaskets
Spark Plugs

But that's besides the point.
When I got it back, but a day later (which was Sat) i notice coolant leaking onto the under engine cover, but i didn't really care because 1 - it wasn't much coolant and 2 - the coolant tank was over the full line and a half, so I didn't really care, I thought maybe there's a relief valve or overflow valve or something, but also didn't care because of how much coolant was in there, I was happy for it to drop while coolant leaks BUT, it never did.

So I was driving today and all of a sudden i noticed the gauge raised to over 3/4 so i turned off the car and quickly pulled over.

Punch line is, when the tow truck came 1 and a half hours later the guy started it to drive it up the bed and it clicked, so he got the winch and then we tried to start it again and it slooooowly started but we turned it off straight away.

Any suggestions on damage??
