true, could be the gasket. Exhaust gasses in the coolant so it could be bubbles. get a pressure test done

well if you have air locks then you wont get any hot air thru your blowers, so again thats easily tested

i can safely presume that this is water running through the heater matrix. maybe it is freezing in the matrix and the sound is like that because of icy water? Is that a long shot?
