I didnt have time to get all the details, but I am wondering if that cracking could have been causing what seemed to be blow-by...I will call tomorrow to find out more details on exactly what is wrong with the head and on which cylinders.

Have them show you the crack, if it's just between the valve seats then it's not too much of a worry. If they know the heads, then they are probably talking about a different crack.
